Our latest half term workshop was a great success as we welcomed over 25 children to take part in a free Top of the Pops themed music and dance performance.
There were a few changes to the normal Saturday night performance as we set up a TOTP style catwalk in the church hall with an amazing light set up supplied by one of our VML members. Thanks Paul!
The children were coached in singing, dance and performance at daily sessions throughout the week, with a big Saturday night performance. The participants performed music by The Beatles, Queen, Adele, Abba and many more.
Our next workshop is High School Musical in the May half term, from May 29th to June 3rd. If you would like to take part please contact us.
