Melt Arts

MELT Arts CIC offers a uniquely supportive and industry- focused training environment for emerging performers. Unlike large mainstream centres, our campus operates as an intimate, specialist performing arts hub, where every learner is known, valued and individually supported. Our purpose-built studios provide a professional, creative space for dance, acting, and musical theatre training, with access to rehearsal rooms, performance spaces and recording environments that mirror real industry settings.

Our ethos is rooted in ELEVATE – empowering learners to grow artistically, academically, and personally. We intentionally bridge the gap between vocational and professional training, helping learners develop the confidence, resilience and independence needed for progression into conservatoires, drama schools, higher education and the creative industries.

What makes our site truly distinctive is our emphasis on community and belonging. Learners train in small, focused groups, receiving personalised mentorship from experienced practitioners and working industry professionals. This ensures high-quality technical development alongside space for individuality, creativity and artistic identity to flourish.

We are committed to access and inclusivity, removing the barriers that often exist in the performing arts. Our environment welcomes learners from all backgrounds and supports them emotionally, creatively and educationally. Regular performance opportunities, workshops with guest artists, and links with professional venues and companies enrich the learning experience and broaden progression pathways.

Learners should choose MELT Arts CIC because it is more than a training site – it is a place to grow, create, and be supported on the journey to becoming a confident, industry-ready performer.
