Our adjudication team of incredible Young Performers, returned to the Junior Theatre Festival on Saturday 18th May 2024 at the ICC in Birmingham, where they blew the judges away with their performance of 'Matilda the Musical JR', being awarded 'Achievement in Ensemble'!
Alongside an incredible morning of adjudications, our 43 young performers, aged 9-15, stayed over night locally in Birmingham, enjoying a lovely buffet breakfast, before heading to the festival, where they got exclusive sneak peaks at the European Premiere's of Disney's Newsies JR and The Drowsy Chaperone JR. They also got the incredible opportunity to work with several leading industry professionals, throughout an afternoon of acting, singing and dancing workshops and finally, the festival concluded with an epic finale awards ceremony, where we scooped up the 'Achievement in Ensemble' award, also featuring performances from West End stars, Jordan Luke Gage and Lauren Drew, a teacher's dance featuring Toby and Sophie and an All Star finale, starring our very own Eme and Heidi, who were selected as the 'All Stars' following our adjudication performance.
It was an incredible, inspiring day, with 1200 incredible young musical lovers, united through their love of theatre, celebrating everybody's talents. We cannot wait to be back for JTF 2025!
