DRESS & TECH REHEARSAL DETAILS

Dress rehearsals will take place both at the studio on Sundays leading up to the show and on stage at Altona City Theatre on Mon 24th November. The Sunday dates, times and details of rehearsals will be sent out in Term 4.

CONCERT REHEARSAL MUSIC

The edited music for our show will be posted below for students to practice and rehearse at home. Regular practice not only builds confidence and performance skills, but also strengthens the whole team on stage. We encourage you to support your child by watching their at-home “mini shows” — make it fun! Your encouragement helps boost their confidence and reminds them how rewarding it is to share their hard work with others.
