Choosing the best children’s franchise to invest in is an exciting but tricky decision that requires careful thought. With so many options available, it’s not just about picking a popular brand, it’s about finding the right fit for you. Razzamataz Theatre Schools recommends doing your homework and really taking the time to research what each franchise offers. A good starting point is to delve deep into understanding your own personal goals. Ask yourself what you want to achieve, whether it’s flexibility, financial growth, creativity, or community impact and consider whether the franchise aligns with those ambitions.
What makes Razzamataz unique is its low-cost entry requirements, making it one of the most accessible franchise opportunities. With flexible finance options, you can start your own Razzamataz for just a 30% deposit and then £216 per month, completely interest free, spread over five years*. This affordable entry point opens the door to an exciting, rewarding business with incredible opportunities, all backed by a supportive, award-winning network.
Another standout feature of Razzamataz is the wide age range of students you can cater to, offering classes for everyone from tiny babies and their parents, through to pre-schoolers, and right up to young adults aged 18. This unique life cycle within the brand means you’re not only helping to develop confident, triple-threat performers, you’re also creating true ambassadors for your business. Many children start their journey with Razzamataz at a young age and continue through the years, gaining valuable experience along the way. As they grow, some choose to give back by volunteering, completing work experience at their local school, becoming teaching assistants, and eventually stepping into teaching roles. Remarkably, a number even go on to become franchisees themselves, taking on the exciting challenge of becoming Principals of their very own Razzamataz school.
In addition to the core classes, Razzamataz offers a wealth of additional revenue streams that not only boost your income but also serve as powerful student retention tools. With such a wide variety of options, there’s something to suit all student’s interests and ambitions. You can offer Razz Act for aspiring actors, Project Intense for those who want to sharpen their skills with more focused training, and Competition Squad for students who thrive on the challenge of performing in front of judges. There’s also Razz Acro Arts, combining performance with acrobatic technique, and an ever-growing range of pre-school classes that provide a nurturing introduction to the world of performing arts. These extras keep students engaged, motivated, and coming back year after year.
One of the biggest benefits of joining Razzamataz is the incredible earning potential, which is fully supported through our award-winning training and ongoing guidance. With one of the lowest management fees in the children’s franchise industry, you get to keep more of what you earn while still benefiting from a proven, highly supportive business model.

What do our franchisees say
“The Finance Offer made it possible for me to join the network straight away, rather than delaying my dreams by a year or more,” Abby, franchisee of Razzamataz Chesterfield.
“Having the franchise model behind us that makes all the difference. The opportunities we can offer our students are incredible, anything from performing on a West End stage, to leading the Disneyland Parade and overseas trips, you just wouldn’t be able to do this by yourself,” Paige, franchisee of Razzamataz Billericay, Chelmsford, and Maldon.
“This role allows me to live the life I want. I go to the gym in the mornings and then come home and do a few hours work. I often go for a walk in the afternoon or meet friends and I love the flexibility that it offers,” Samantha, franchisee Razzamataz Leighton Buzzard.
“Creating two businesses that support others have been an incredibly rewarding journey. Through Razzamataz and The Wee Sanctuary, I’ve been able to blend my passions for creativity and wellness, make a meaningful impact on people’s lives, and achieve the financial freedom to live the life I love,” Amanda, franchisee Razzamataz Glasgow North.
