Drama School Update September 2010

Welcome to your Theatre Cats update!

*100% Pass Rate for Trinity Exam Students*

59 Theatre Cats students from our Burton, Newhall and Derby
classes had their Trinity Drama exams on Saturday
17th and Sunday 18th July. The day was a huge success with a
every single student passing for the second year running.
We look forward to presenting the certificates to the students
when they come back this week. Well done to everyone involved!

*The Wizard of Oz– A Summer School Success!*

60 students from Theatre Cats Stage School have recently
rehearsed and performed a show within a week. Children between 5
and 16 years of age came to the summer school every day to learn
all the songs, dances and acting skills to be able to perform
the stage version of The Wizard of Oz.

The summer schools ran from Monday 2nd to Friday 6th August at
The William Allitt School in Newhall and Monday 23rd – Friday 27th
August at Heatherton Community Centre in Littleover. On the last
day there was a performance to family and friends to showcase the
talents of the youngsters. 'It's amazing what you did in just four
days. The children were obviously really enjoying themselves' said
one parent.

The children were so dedicated and they enjoyed every second.
We were very proud of them.

*Change of Burton Venue*

From September 2010 our Burton class on a Monday evening will be
taking place at The Brewhouse Arts Centre. Other Burton classes
remain unchanged.

*When Does the Winter Term Start?*

All classes start this coming week and we have some great things
planned so we look forward to seeing all students back and raring
to go!

Mon 6th Sep – Burton
Tues 7th Sep – Newhall
Wed 8th Sep – Mickleover and Theatre Kittens Burton
Fri 10th Sep – Theatre Kittens Mickleover
Sat 11th Sep – Burton

Please note there will be no Theatre Cats classes during the week
Monday 13th – Sunday 19th September due to many of our staff
being involved in Footloose at The Brewhouse Arts Centre. If you'd
like to come and see the show and support us, we'd love to see you
there. You can see details of the show at:
http://www.mellow-dramatics.org    and the Box Office telephone
number is 01283 508100.

*Free Drama Workshop*

We at Theatre Cats believe that parents need reassurance when
enrolling their child on a new team or at a new club and this is
why Theatre Cats offers every child the chance to attend their
first class for free! Parents can then meet the teachers and ask
any questions they may have. It also gives the child the
opportunity to try something new without obligation.

If your child is not currently a Theatre Cats student, we do have
a few places available for the new term.  Please reply to this
email or call me on 0845 003 8230  to register your child for one
of the available places or discuss which class would be best for
them.

New invites for this term have already been sent out via email
and post to those who have requested them, however, if you haven't
received yours please contact us by replying to this email and we
will sort out a new invite for you straight away.

We look forward to hearing from you.

Best Regards
Catherine Budworth and the Theatre Cats Team
