Bridging The Gap

Bridging The Gap Performance and Theatre Workshops for 16-25 year olds at Guide Bridge Theatre

31/01/2026

We are so excited to announce our next show, StoryTime, A Bridging the Gap Showcase, brought to you by the writers of Rest In Cheese!!

Travel through time, space and more as you are absorbed into the magical world of Storytime, a Bridging the Gap musical theatre showcase, featuring some of the most iconic musical numbers from The West End and Broadway!

However, this is not just a typical showcase. When Mr Feywin gets his mysterious storybook stolen, who knows what they will encounter? From a cafe, to the past and maybe even the future… take a guess at what will happen, and more importantly, which director will get more frustrated at way too many creative liberties…

Showing at gbtheatre Guide Bridge theatre from 17th-18th April 2026. Book tickets not at www.gbtheatre.co.uk - limited seats so don’t miss out!

However, it wouldn’t be possible without the amazing volunteers at Guide Bridge Theatre gbtheatre helping Bridging the Gap to make this production come to life!

So whether you’re a choreographer, set painter, techie, brew maker, cleaner, bartender, costumer or anything else, thank you for your support so far and continuing into this week!

We have been super busy rehearsing around the clock to make sure Rest in Cheese is ready to be performed!

With one scene left to learn - our cast and crew are eager to share what we’ve been working on!

It’s funny, serious, engaging and very, very… cheesy.

Will Mrs Leistergrommit cope with her class on a trip abroad? Will CEO Phil-I-Delfia's secret destroy his reputation? Who will survive the wrath of the great World War Brie?!

Come down to Guide Bridge theatre on Saturday 9th August to find out!
