Students at the Sir John Colfox Academy showcased their acting, musical and dancing talents in the production last week. (14-15 March)

A large cast from across the Bridport school were involved from Year 7 to the Sixth Form, not forgetting the great student backstage and technical crew. A talented student band provided live music featuring lots of hits by Queen brilliantly performed throughout the show.

Adam Shelley, Headteacher of the Sir John Colfox Academy, said: “It was a wonderful show, full of brilliant performances. The musical, acting, comedy and dancing talent on show was fantastic – well done to all students involved including the technical crew.

“I’d also like to say a huge thank you to all staff who made such a fantastic event possible, especially Mrs Emma Holder, Head of Drama, Ms Kimberly Langdon, Drama Teacher, Mr Brian Hocking, Head of Music and Mr Brendan Jackson, Forest School Teacher who supported the band.”

Emma Holder, Head of Drama at the Sir John Colfox Academy, said: “I was incredibly proud of everyone’s performances and our technical team. The show was full of energy, great musical performances, acting, dancing and comedy talent and was huge fun to watch – well done to everyone involved, particularly our lead stars Lily, Sherwin, Iris, Mathew, Toby, Tallulah and Jacob.
