A cast of Plympton students have put on their own performance of a hit musical after seeing it staged in London last year.
Students at Plympton Academy and some local primary schools have recently finished staging their own fantastic performance of the West End hit musical ‘School of Rock!’ to packed out audiences.
The cast featured pupils from feeder primary schools as well as Plympton Academy students from Years 7 through to 13. All students performed with energy, passion and a real sense of professionalism over the five days and many audience members came back for a second time!
Plympton Academy Director of Performing Arts, Jo Crook said:
“Our process for the show began with a visit to London in early October last year. At 6am one Autumn morning we set off with the cast to see the West End production of School of Rock! The students were inspired and excited by the prospect of putting on their own production and it was a fantastic opportunity to see how the show looked in performance.”
