Our skilled Musical Theatre and Dance students will be taking to the stage at Colne Cricket Club Music Festival alongside iconic 90s boyband East 17.
This will be one of the students’ first major public performances of the new academic year and is a fantastic opportunity for them to perform as a part of a large-scale live event.
The students will develop material across dance and musical theatre in preparation to perform at the brand new event on 19 September.
Organised by promoters Scott Dawson Advertising, the festival promises a day filled with live entertainment, family fun and a festival atmosphere.
With more than 22 million albums sold worldwide, 18 Top 20 singles and four Top 10 albums, headliners East 17 remain one of the UK’s most successful and recognisable boybands. Fans can expect to hear huge hits including House of Love, It’s Alright, Thunder and the timeless Christmas Number 1 Stay Another Day.
