Jackie Palmer Stage School was started in 1971 by Jackie Palmer and her daughter, Marylyn, to provide training in all aspects of dance, drama and singing, as well as having an agency to get the students work in theatre, television, and film. Over 50 years later, the Stage school now has around 200 students, offering dance, acting and singing. Boys have separate classes to the girls as boys’ dance is different to that performed by girls. There’s also a separate agency for professional performers who are currently starring in West End Shows and several television series, here and in America. Marylyn’s husband, Chris Phillips, joined the business many years ago. Formerly of the BBC, Chris is also the founder and breakfast show host of Wycombe Sound Radio which you can find on 106.6FM or through the website www.wycombesound.org.uk.
