Rehearsals are well under way for Highfields’ upcoming musical production, Beauty & The Beast - with tickets for the stage spectacular now on sale through our dedicated online Box Office.
The magical Disney classic will be brought to life on stage from February 26th-28th, featuring students from Years 7-9.
More than 50 talented performers have been rehearsing for months to stage the feel-good family favourite, and will be back in school throughout the half-term holiday to put the finishing touches to the production.
Ms S Bishop, Highfields’ Head of Extra-Curricular Performance, said the entire cast was now looking forward to curtain up, and the chance to showcase their performances to live audiences.
She added: “For some of the students involved, this will be their first taste of performing to a live audience.
“We are so excited for show time. The entire cast has thoroughly enjoyed being part of the production, rehearsals have been going very well, and we are looking forward to putting on a fantastic show.
“It takes a lot of hard work over a number of weeks to put on our shows, but the process is always such great fun and a wonderful experience for our students. As well as the performers, a number of students have also given their time to help with costume and set making.
“They have all worked incredibly hard to ensure Beauty & The Beast is a success, and we can’t wait to welcome audiences to ‘be our guest’, and celebrate their hard work and talent over three nights.”
Shows start at 7.30pm every night. Tickets, which cost £6 for adults/£4 concessions, are available through our Box Office or Humanities LRC.
