What an incredible turnout for our Junior Ensemble auditions for The Little Mermaid at The Roxy Theatre, Leadgate!

We were blown away by the talent on display throughout the auditions. It was a pleasure to meet so many young performers.

A huge thank you to everyone who auditioned and to the families who supported them. The standard was outstanding, making the casting process a very difficult one.
