“I feel so proud of myself, I’m buzzing.”
This was just one of so many similar responses when we asked our students how they felt after performing in the iconic Disneyland Paris parade. What they may not fully express in words is just how transformative an experience like this can be. It builds their confidence, resilience, and self-belief, skills that will have a lasting impact on their lives, both now and in the future.
As part of our incredible 25th anniversary celebrations at a network, Razzamataz Theatre Schools organised two incredible trips to Disneyland Paris, where students performed to a global audience in the iconic Disney parade.
This experience was especially significant, as the first Disneyland Paris experience in 2017 was a massive success, and another was planned for 2020. Unfortunately, due to the pandemic, the 2020 visit had to be cancelled, making the 2025 return even more anticipated. In fact, the trip was so popular that the first event sold out almost immediately, leading Razzamataz to offer a further trip to ensure students and their families didn’t miss out.
“At Razzamataz, we go beyond outstanding performing arts training to create unforgettable experiences that inspire young people to discover their true potential,” says Founder and MD of Razzamataz Denise Gosney. “By opening doors to opportunities outside of their everyday routines, we help build confidence, give them a voice and allow them to view the world with fresh eyes and limitless possibilities.”
For the past 25 years, Razzamataz has led the way in performing arts education, but what has always been our point of difference is understanding that for most children and families, the end goal is not necessarily to be an arts professional. The performing arts are a powerful tool for building confidence, creativity, and resilience, but we do this alongside having extremely nurturing and caring teachers. The lessons are planned to not only develop technical skills in dance, drama, and singing, but also to encourage teamwork, communication, and self-expression. This balance ensures that every child, whether they dream of a career on stage or simply want to grow in confidence, leaves Razzamataz with skills and memories that will last a lifetime.
It’s not just the students and families who benefit from exceptional experiences, Razzamataz Principals and their teams are also treated to unforgettable moments. During the recent Disneyland Paris trip, the network came together for a spectacular 25 year celebration meal at the Eiffel Tower, highlighting the rewards of being part of this multi-award winning, Dragons’ Den backed network. Experiences like this not only create special memories but also bring teams closer together, sparking creativity and strengthening relationships, ultimately helping businesses grow, therefore giving more young people incredible opportunities.
