We endeavour to challenge the company with different disciplines each year.
One year we may choose to do something which calls for more demanding dancing while the next year may require stronger singers or actors.
This allows individuals the opportunity to improve existing skills or develop new ones as well as allowing different members to take more prominent roles each year.
We also endeavour to provide members with an wider education about theatre in general.
This year we ran a very successful trip to London during which our members took part in a theatre workshop with professional actors before visiting the Apollo Victoria Theatre to watch the popular musical Wicked.
We also had a visit from Jonathan the Jester who engaged our members in a circus skills workshop.
