Summer Showcase
P E R F O R M I N G & C R E A T I V E A R T S
After more than a year since we were last able to welcome parents into the academy for a performing arts event, we were delighted to welcome 130 guests back into the theatre with social distancing in place for our Performing & Creative Arts showcase on Tuesday 6th July.
The cast ran dance, drama and writing workshops Before entering the theatre for the show, audience members enjoyed an art & design exhibition of student work whilst Janus (12 Sirleaf) played piano beautifully in the foyer to set the atmosphere.
Over 75 students took part in the showcase, with dance, drama and music departments showing off the fantastic work our students have produced this year. Performances ranged from Shakespeare monologues to a full rock band! The audience thoroughly enjoyed the show and gave the students a standing ovation after the finishing number, Hard Knock Life from the musical Annie. With such a fantastic show produced in such a short space of time, we can’t wait to see what the Performing Arts team have in store for us next year.
Many thanks to the Performing & Creative Arts teachers for their time and commitment in making the show and exhibition such a success, the talented and dedicated students involved on stage and behind the scenes, and the families who supported the stars of the show throughout the term and on the night in the audience.
A full video of the show will be released on our YouTube channel and website shortly for those who weren’t able to secure tickets.
We look forward to being able to welcome a larger audience for our Christmas Concert on Thursday 16th December.
