Musical Theatre Programs for Kids

A fun, excellent and educational platform for young artists.

Through the transformative power of musical theatre, Sea Star Productions creates a space where young artists don't just perform—they discover who they're meant to be.

This is where stars are born.

We nurture talent, build community, and spark wildly joyful experiences that inspire young people ages 4-18 to step into the spotlight and shine with confidence.

Founded by Charlotte Denton, a professional musical theatre artist with a passion for empowering the next generation, Sea Star Productions partners with Sidney's renowned Mary Winspear Centre and McTavish Academy of Arts to offer an extraordinary opportunity -- a chance to immerse yourself in the magic, artistry, and pure joy of musical theatre.

About Sea Star

At Sea Star children don’t just learn to sing, act, and dance, they find a place to belong, make friends, build confidence, and discover what they’re capable of. In a welcoming, no-judgement community, every child gets the chance to try something new, step onto the stage, and truly shine.

  • "I cannot say enough positive things about my daughter's one-on-one bespoke singing lessons. Since beginning these sessions, the growth in both her confidence and her technical ability has been truly impressive-it is a night-and-day difference. She now approaches singing with a level of self-belief and skill that simply wasn't evident before. The lessons strike a rare and wonderful balance: they gently but consistently push her beyond her comfort zone, while always remaining deeply supportive and encouraging. This nurturing, high-expectation environment has allowed her to work hard, take risks, and thrive, and we are incredibly grateful for the impact it has had on her as both a performer and a person."

    —Geri

  • "Our daughter has (unsurprisingly) LOVED the classes at Sea Star. After the first week, she was telling me how comfortable she is there, and how connected she feels. She's busy with a variety of extracurricular activities, and she enjoys them all... but this group and activity really makes her feel something special."

    —Sea Star Parent

  • "I love my private singing lesson, it is my absolute favourite class, I never want to miss it because it is so fun. You get to be energetic and learn how to use your voice. And it makes you feel more confident singing and auditioning. You can express what you are feeling creatively in a very safe and supportive environment. And have lots and lots of fun choreographing your song."

    —Sasha

  • "From the very first lesson, Cadee created such a warm, encouraging, and fun environment that my once-shy singer now bounces into every session with excitement. She immediately put my daughter at ease, discovered exactly what makes her voice unique, and built a plan that feels more like play than "work" This isn't just vocal training it's confidence-building, joy-spreading, dream-nurturing magic! Thank you Sea Star Productions!"
