Benson and Cookham schools will join in the fun! December 2nd – 6th.....call 01628 898038 for tickets! Bristol will be performing extracts from Little Shop Of Horrors, Mary Poppins and the awesome West Side Story as well as other West End favourites. |
Summer PresentationsEach Summer every StageWorks school presents an informal production to the parents of the pieces they have been working on since the beginning of the year. It is also a good opportunity for the parents to talk to the staff and any new intakes to watch the open evening. |
Shiplake CarnivalThe students have performed at this local carnival every year since 2005. It is an ideal opportunity for the students to explore their performance and work in a close environment with the general public. |
