Razzamataz Durham!
Our principal at Durham is Denise Hutton.
Denise trained in Scotland as a child and then continued her training at the Brian Rogers College in London.
Prior to establishing Razzamataz Theatre Schools in 2000, Denise had been a professional dancer, choreographer and gymnast for over 10 years, performing around the world on cruise ships, in pantomimes, summer seasons, European and UK tours, the Millennium Dome and the London Palladium.
Denise has choreographed many professional shows, ranging from Rock ‘r’ Roll, Motown and West End to Cabaret and Funky Pop Tributes and has received a prestigious Choreography award, presented by Wayne Sleep in London. She also has television credits, including Take the High Road, Emmerdale and a stunt double for Harry and the Wrinklies. Denise has worked with celebrities (that will be more familiar to parents than kids!) such as Cannon & Ball, Keith Harris & Orville, Roy Chubby Brown, cast of Only Fools & Horses....to name but a few!
In 2002, Denise was runner up in the Prince’s Trust Young Business Person of the Year Awards. As well as teaching in the UK, she has taught gymnastics and dance in Canada.
Always updating ideas and choreography, Denise regularly attends workshops in London at Pineapple and Dance Works. Denise is also a qualified fitness instructor, and has recently trained and became part of the Urban Funk Crew!.
In 2007 Denise appeared on BBC TV's Dragon's Den and entered into a partnership with Duncan Bannatyne, which allowed Denise to open a school within Bannatyne's Health Club at Durham.
