What made you feel a Big Mouth Theatre franchise was the right fit for you?
After working as both a coach and a manager with Big Mouth Theatre for the past eight
years, I’ve seen firsthand how powerful it’s ethos truly is. The commitment to a noncompetitive,
supportive environment aligns deeply with my own values and the way I
believe children learn and thrive. I’ve watched countless young people grow in
confidence, creativity and self-expression when they are given space to explore without
pressure and it’s reinforced my passion for this approach year after year.
How did the franchise model help you get up and running with confidence?
The franchise model gave me a level of confidence and clarity that I wouldn’t have had
starting out on my own. Adrian and Holly have been incredibly supportive throughout
the entire process, oDering guidance, resources and reassurance whenever needed.
From the structured framework to the ongoing mentorship, the franchise model allowed
me to hit the ground running with a clear vision, practical tools and the confidence that I
had a knowledgeable team behind me every step of the way.
What impact have you seen on the children and families you work with?
I’ve seen children grow in confidence, communication and creativity, often even
surprising their own families with how much they blossom in a supportive, pressurefree
environment. What stands out the most is the sense of belonging and joy that
families describe – knowing their children have a safe, encouraging space where they
can truly be themselves.
