I Love You, You’re Perfect, Now Change

This smash hit comedy musical takes you through all the ups and downs of modern relationships… from first date nerves, to meeting the parents, marital squabbles, having kids and even dating in your twilight years. Ten years after our original production of this show, we returned with an updated version that brings you the same hilarious themes but with all the new quirks of modern life. A night of laughter and romance you won’t forget – perfect for anyone who’s ever been in love!
Annie

Annie

Following the sell-out success of Chicago, we are very excited to present the classic family musical, Annie. This beloved show tells the story of Little Orphan Annie and the hard knock life she leads in New York City in 1933. Things aren’t easy with Miss Hannigan running the orphanage, but it isn’t long before Annie is whisked away to Daddy Warbucks’s Mansion and she gets to live the life she’s always dreamed of. Join us as we bring this classic tale to life…

Seven Cabaret pupils successfully auditioned to be in the professional production of ‘Joseph’ at Nottingham Theatre Royal in April. The show starred X Factor winner Joe McElderry.

The girls were part of the children’s choir and were on stage for the entire show, singing nearly every song including the well known tunes ‘Any Dream Will Do’ and ‘Close Every Door To Me’.

This was the fourth professional production of Joseph that has featured Cabaret pupils and it was a great experience for them all!
