Explore Business →The Peak Moment Method
Built around moments people actually remember
Time to Perform is built around memorable “peak moments”: the instant a pupil steps into history, a quiet child speaks up, a team solves a challenge together, or a story suddenly clicks. The workshops are structured to create these moments deliberately rather than leaving engagement to chance.

Founder-led
Performance, education and imagination in one offer
Founded by Joe Riley, Time to Perform brings together acting, school workshop delivery, communication, facilitation, storytelling and education. The aim is simple: help people learn, speak, create and grow by doing rather than simply listening.
The brand now covers three connected markets: early years and nurseries, primary and secondary schools, and adult/business training — giving the company a year-round offer while keeping a clear creative identity.
