Romeo & Juliet
Year 11 Dance Pathway started the year with their Dance Performance ‘Romeo & Juliet’
The show was filled with a range of dance styles and brought the Romeo and Juliet story into the modern day. With exciting choreography from BOA staff and also from the student body, the whole show told this famous story through dance and character.
Ivan De Freitas, a cast member from the smash West End Hit Musical &Juliet was invited in to choreograph the opening number and offered the students a real insight into working and learning at an extremely fast pace and under pressure. This experience created an excellent start to the performance.
With a Graffiti walled backdrop, the ambience of the theatre really allowed the students and audience to engage with the characters and conflict between the Montagues and Capulets.
Many of our Year 11 students will continue into Year 12 Dance Pathway whilst others will continue their studies at other dance providers across the region.
We wish them all the very best in their dance courses and other qualifications between now and the end of this academic year.
