Good luck to Gielgudian Isaac Edwards who has been cast in Starlight Express, London. Isaac has already been in the cast of Starlight, but in Bochum, Germany, so we’re thrilled for him to returning to the show on home turf. Well done Isaac!

Excellent results for our ISTD modern exams. No fails or straight forward pass marks, all were either high merits or distinctions. Well done all!

Two performances at the Hub for our end of year show attended by Celebrity VIP John Partridge who handed out medals at our prize-giving ceremony. Congrats to all who performed. The most exciting moment was when John picked out 10 year old Luca and asked him to appear in his forthcoming show ‘Dancing Man’. More news on that to follow…
