The absolute summer dream team!! Thank you to our incredible summer school teachers Colette, Zoe and Alex!! What a week! I feel so lucky to be able to offer students the chance to work with West End professionals and they don’t come better than this!. A phenomenal show and incredibly talented teachers who have inspired our students this week. Thank you from all of us at YSBD! We cannot wait for you to come back and work with us all again in the new term! #thankyou #westend #inspire

Can you spot some familiar faces on the Palace Theatre and Opera House Facebook page? Yes that’s right

Well where do I even begin? The Greatest Show on Earth was just in a different league and one of my proudest achievements to date. I cried watching every single one of my students onstage. Words cannot express how amazing they were and I want to say the biggest thank you to everyone involved. I have produced a lot of shows in my teaching years but NONE compared to today’s. What I witnessed onstage were a million stars in the making!! I’m just speechless!!! A HUGE thank you
