"The facilities and equipment here have blown me away."

"A great facility with a great team that REALLY make it work."
- Rick Smith, former Production Manager for Kasabian, commenting on LS-Live, the home of BACKSTAGE ACADEMY®, 2011
BACKSTAGE ACADEMY® is a training centre of excellence for the creative, performance and live event production industry, leading the way for skills development within this sector. We pride ourselves on working only with carefully selected lecturers, education consultants and industry tutors to ensure we are providing the very best training possible.
The ACADEMY benefits from its unique link to some of the world's leading productions and production personelle, through its location at the famous LS-Live rehearsal studio and is an Apple Authorised Training Centre. LS-Live is Europe's biggest studio rehearsal and production facility that services high profile artists like Kasabian, Lady Gaga, Kylie, Genesis and Dizzee Rascal; TV and film productions from ITV, BBC, MatteBlackFilms and Sitcom Soldiers; and pre-production for brands like Jaguar, Monster Energy and Formula One. The ACADEMY was born out of the rising need for a skilled, technical workforce for the growing behind-the-scenes world of creative production. It's an industry-led initiative working within the education sector, offering quality, relevant and practical training at the heart of where it happens.
Short courses can also be delivered remotely - we are happy to discuss this with you. We can also write custom courses to suit your individual needs and tailor our existing courses to make them more relevant to your staff. If you want to discuss the possibilities of us coming to you or writing a custom course please give Robin Watkinson a call on 01977 659880.
