We’re now well into the holidays and I’m just beginning to feel a little relaxed. So my attention has turned to planning the details of our next show.
A really useful resource for me has been this YouTube video which is a karaoke version of the whole show.

For this show the singing tells the whole story and it’s really important that all the words can be heard clearly.
If you’re ever feeling a little bored over the coming five weeks, just fire up YouTube and sing along.
Once again I would like to thank all pupils who put themselves into the spotlight and auditioned. It is not easy to stand up in front of a panel of teachers to act and sing solo. So a huge well done to all.

As ever there are limited parts available and we are sorry we can’t cast everyone in bigger roles, but we didn’t see a bad audition. So please do join us in the chorus and come back again next time.
Also please do take us up on the offer of a chat if you want to know what to do to get even better in future auditions.
