Spectacular Stars in their Eyes Performance Raises Money for Children in Need

November 20, 2024 02:28pm

 

Last Thursday, our incredible staff took to the stage for a spectacular ‘Stars in Their Eyes’ performance for Children in Need. The performers dazzled the audience with their creative costumes and musical talents, playing instruments and singing live songs from various genres; reggae, rock, pop and musical theatre. 

 As per tradition, Mr Burns hosted the event as MC and entertained the audience in between acts with silly jokes such as ‘What do call a cow that plays a musical instrument? A ‘moo-sician’!' For his efforts Mr Burns, got a few good natured 'boos' from the crowd. We couldn't have asked for a more supportive audience, they were brilliant, cheering enthusiastically and applauding for all the performers. 

    

They enjoyed performances from:  

  • Miss Vowles as Regina George from Mean Girls the musical
  • Miss Jackson as Bob Marley 
  • Mrs Preston and Mr J Smith as Guns and Roses 
  • Miss Kendall as the Queens from Six the musical
  • Mr Cross and Mr Forster as Sum 41
  • Miss Blackmore as Sia and Miss Bellazrak as Sean Paul supported by the Science staff as backup dancers
  • Miss Paice and Mr Corsby as Timon and Pumbaa from the Lion King musical
  • Miss Francis and Mr Young as as Rihanna and Calvin Harris, supported by Jason and Tyler as their dancing entourage 

    

All the performers returned to the stage for a curtain call and everyone sang along to the finale. The atmosphere in the hall was joyous as the audience got on their feet to join in on the dancing, singing along with the performers on stage.  

A big thank you to Miss Francis, the music department, the student helpers and all the performers for making this brilliant event happen! It was an unforgettable show and both the staff and students had loads of fun while raising over £400 for Children in Need!
