Christmas Theatre Showcase a Great Success!
Wednesday, December 30th, 2009
Our Theatre Cats Students from Derby, Burton and Newhall have recently come together to provide a Christmas showcase for friends and family at The William Allitt School in Newhall.
The students worked really hard learning lines and reheasing songs and dances during the Winter term.
The 3 performances from our intermediate, young and older students took place on Saturday 12th December. Each performance was to a packed audience.
The students were given poems to learn and perform, this type of recital is where students learn key performance skills such as confidence on stage, using a clear and loud voice and memory skills. All of which are necessary for students to progress and for those who choose to take exams with Theatre Cats through Trinity Guildhall.
The students also had to learn songs, dances and drama extracts to showcase their talents. This included High School Musical, Annie, Blood Brothers, Hairspray and Grease to name but a few.
The feedback at the end of each performance was excellent with parents overwhelmed with their child’s success and what they had achieved in 10 classes.
We were extremley proud of everyone who took part and we look forward to seeing you all for a new term and a new year in January 2010.
The TheatreCats Team

Winter Newsletter 2009 We’re now at the end of term and Christmas is on the horizon, but first, a recap of the fabulous achievements at Theatre Cats and what’s just around the corner: Christmas Showcase performances… Over 140 students recently took part in our Christmas Showcase performances at The William Allitt School on Saturday 12th December. There were 3 performances on the day, each to sell-out audiences. We understand that it was a little cramped at times in the audience but of course we didn’t want anyone to miss the chance to see their child perform. Our students had been working hard on their songs, poems, drama pieces and dance routines to entertain and showcase their talents. Well done to all involved – you made us very proud!
