Dance Show 2015

March 7, 2015

The Dance Show was performed to three full houses over the one matinee and two evening performances. Over 40 girls and boys from Year 7 to Year 13 performed in a range of excellently choreographed dance routines to the great delight of appreciative audiences.

The dance styles which included tap, contemporary, street, musical theatre and commercial were as varied as the costumes. The majority of the performers only dance in school and had worked incredibly hard, giving up a number of weekends to prepare for the show. The standard each year is very high for school trained only dancers.

The dances were mainly choreographed by Louise Gall, Kate Harrison and Jemima Loddy with the tap dances choreographed by Chantal Oliver. There were also a few excellent dances choreographed by the pupils.

Well done to all the performers for such a great show!
