We're a performing arts school based in Tauranga, New Zealand, specializing in music and the dramatic arts. Founded in 2019 by Fletcher Oxford, Oxford Performing Arts has since been training performers of all ages and abilities to reach their full potential. Our staff teach a range of drama classes and music lessons at a variety of local schools, and take private one on one lessons out of local studios. We're passionate about the arts, experienced in our fields, and dedicated to 'building strong performers'.
Oxford Performing Arts doubles as a production company, facilitating and directing school productions, performance events, and creative entries for local competitions.

SHOWCASES
At the conclusion of each school term, all students of Oxford Performing Arts are given the opportunity to perform their learned material at our end of term showcase. These showcases are held at the Tauranga Boys' College theatre, four times a year, to provide our students with the chance to learn through live performance on a proper proscenium arch stage, to a supportive audience of friends and family.
Please see a gallery of photos taken at our showcases below!
