About the Studio

The Studio provides expert and professional one to one singing classes and acting classes from a lovely garden studio in a friendly family home in the heart of Rayleigh, Essex. Online classes are also available to those who cannot visit.
Both adults and children are welcome at the studio. Beginners are welcome at the studio as are experienced performers. Students work with industry Director and Teacher John Payton to improve acting skills, work on their vocal development, prepare for a vital audition or exam or just for pleasure. John is an experienced teacher of the dramatic arts and singing. He works with all ages of students, and has also specialised in teaching young performers. Many of his students have gone on to study at London and international drama schools and work in the entertainment industry in theatre, film, television and music.
