There is always another way - the challenge is finding it...
Another Way Theatre - Croydon
Another Way Entertainment is a vibrant and innovative theatre company based in Croydon but showcasing their talents nationwide. Recent productions include a vaudeville production of Twelfth Night, performed at various venues around London including the historic Middle Temple.
Another Way Cabaret
Another Way Cabaret is available for restaurants, hotels, corporate functions, weddings and private parties.

Education
The ANOTHER WAY creative team offer private one-to-one SINGING, PIANO and DRAMA lessons for children (6+) and adults. Lessons are tailored to you or your child's needs and do not lay undue emphasis on examinations, although students have been submitted for ABRSM Singing Examinations (Grades 1 - 4). The aim is to enable creativity, recognising that everyone learns in different ways.
Lessons are held in Warlingham on Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays from 4pm (children) and by request (adults). There are still a few slots available for 2012 (starting late January).
And for adult actors and singers sessions are geared to helping you prepare for that big audition - taking you through your song, support with your monologue and whatever is required to give you more confidence and a greater ability to meet your potential.
Please note that all tutors are CRB checked.
Olympus The Musical
Another Way's artistic director, Chris Chambers has co-written and is directing the musical OLYMPUS. Produced by Good Company and starring performers from CODA & CROYDON STAGERS, Olympus begins at the opening ceremony of the 2012 Olympic Games... an athlete is struck by lightning and hurled back in time to Ancient Greece. With a mixture of haunting ballads, comedy capers and stirring anthems there is something for everybody.
Olympus has received backing from the RSC's Open Stages initiative and will be performed at the Ashcroft Theatre at Croydon's Fairfield Halls in May 2012 with a further performance at Cornwall's Minack Theatre.
The cast performed at the Croydon Christmas Lights switch on in November 2011 and were extremely well received by the crowd. Demand is sure to be high for this exciting and original production!
