Director and Singing Coach: Mrs Seonaid Clark B. Ed Mus. Hons.

Seonaid grew up in Scotland and has been singing and dancing since the age of five. She studied at Aberdeen University, where she gained a a Bachelor of Education in Music, with first class honours awarded in both performance (singing) and teaching. After graduating Seonaid moved to England where she was Head of Music in a school in County Durham and later Head of the Faculty for Performing Arts in a High School in Newcastle Upon Tyne, where she taught music, dance and drama. Seonaid moved back to Scotland in 2001 and was Principal Teacher of Music at Keith Grammar School. Seonaid left school teaching in 2004 to work full time on Stagestars Scotland.

Outwith teaching, Seonaid has spent a lot of her time in the theatre and performed with three theatre companies in England, taking leading roles at the Newcastle Theatre Royal. Seonaid has been a musical director and producer for many years working with both children and adult theatre companies. Whilst in England she worked as a voice coach at a Stage School and was assistant director of the Newcastle Boys Choir. Seonaid has adjudicated at Gaelic Mods in Scotland and several Music competitions in England and Scotland.

Seonaid has worked on projects with companies such as: Mugenko (Japanese Taiko drumming group), Ordate Lampte (choreographer and drummer for the 'Adzido' African Dance Company), 'Northern Sinfonia' and up and coming groups in the Pop Industry. She also completed a course at the Royal Opera House, Covent Garden.

Seonaid is very passionate about performing and the benefits that can be gained through the performing arts. Students gain skills which have an impact on their confidence in their general day to day life. The Performing Arts are proven to have many health benefits and are a great stress relief! Seonaid believes that talent should be nurtured at a young age, in a positive and fun way and that a performing arts school is a good way to get to know the basics of show business in a safe an enjoyable environment.
