St Mary’s Catholic High School / 20 Jul
The cast of Beauty and The Beast left audiences spellbound this weekend with consistently awe-inspiring performances. Culminating in an entire year of after-school rehearsals, this was the most challenging production our students have ever tackled, and it is no understatement to say they rose to the challenge in every conceivable way. We want to express our deepest gratitude to the staff whose tireless dedication and endless support gave our pupils the confidence and skills to shine, particularly Miss Beesley, Miss Egan, Mr Lloyd, Ms Brownsword, and Mrs Owen. . We must also acknowledge the efforts put in by the members of the pit band, particularly Freya (Y11), Amy (Y13), Finn (Y13) and Reuben (Y11), who provided a professional level of musical accompaniment to the show, as well as Ciara (Y13), our Dance Captain, for her choreography. We also wish to thank the efforts of Mrs Brooks and Mrs Gilding for overseeing the tickets, Miss Booth for her work backstage and our catering team for ensuring the cast were well-fed over the course of the weekend. Finally, we want to thank all who attended the performances, and particularly our parents/carers for their continued support.
We look forward to our KS3 production of Matilda in the new school year.
