Talented students will bring magical fairytale, Beauty & The Beast, to life on stage following months of rehearsals - with a handful of tickets still available for the feel-good family favourite.
It’s time for curtain up on our production of the Disney classic, which will run from tonight (Wed 26th February) until Friday 28th February, featuring students from Years 7-9.
More than 60 performers have been rehearsing for months to stage the musical production, including after-school and weekend sessions. The dedicated students also gave up some of their half term holiday to put the finishing touches to the show.
Ms S Bishop, Highfields’ Head of Extra-Curricular Performance, said: “The entire cast is looking forward to showtime and the chance to showcase their performances to live audiences.
“We have such a wealth of talent at Highfields and so have triple cast the principal characters to give more students the opportunity to per.
“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. We are looking forward to welcoming in audiences to join with us in celebrating our students’ hard work and talent.
"Audiences can expect lots of singing and dancing, bright costumes, enthusiastic performances and lots of fun."
Shows start at 7.30pm every night. Tickets, which cost £6 for adults/£4 concessions, are available through our Box Office or Humanities LRC.
