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! Trinity Guildhall Examinations… 45 Theatre Cats students from our Burton, Newhall and Derby classes took Trinity Guildhall drama exams in July 2009 and achieved 100% pass rate. We will be running |
another exam session in 2010, however, places will be limited to the first 45 students so watch this space!

The Team at Theatre Cats…
In October 08 we welcomed Gabi Throssell to the team. She assisted Fiona at Theatre Cats Derby. Gabi has decided that she is going to pursue her dream of becoming a school teacher and so unfortunately is leaving us at the end of this term. We would like to thank her for her dedication and support during her time with us. Our newest member of the team is Ashleigh Bawden who joined us in May 09. Ashleigh is a trained teacher in Drama and will be teaching from September in Uttoxeter. Her energy is infectious! When Does Next Term Start? Mon 7th Sep – Burton Tues 8th Sep – Newhall Wed 9th Sep – Derby Fri 11th Sep – Uttoxeter Sat 12th Sep – Burton

Theatre Cats have just had a new website designed with a new gallery and blog section. Up-to-date news will be posted on the blog, including calendars, ticket information and new class details so you will always be in the know. We also have a testimonials section so we would be very grateful to receive an email with a few words about how your child has progressed. Students – we want to hear from you as well so tell us what you think and why you enjoy coming to Theatre Cats. |
