Students at The King Alfred School Academy Wow Audience with Performance of Grease
By Zoe, Jill Dando News Correspondent
After months of dedication, students at The King Alfred School Academy brought Grease to life in a spectacular four-night run during March.
With a dazzling display of talent, energy, and passion, the young performers transported their audiences straight back to the rock ‘n’ roll era of the 1950s, earning standing ovations and high praise from all in attendance.
From the moment the curtains rose, the atmosphere was electric.
The cast, spanning from Year 7 to Year 13, delivered unforgettable performances, showcasing their hard work and commitment.
The sold-out Friday night show was a testament to the excitement surrounding the production, and those lucky enough to secure tickets were treated to an evening of outstanding acting, incredible choreography, and iconic songs that had the crowd singing along.
The show was organised by Miss Keeble, Mrs Martin and Mr John, and the lighting was organised by Dawson (Year 13).
Reflecting on the show’s success, Mrs Martin shared: "The students have been outstanding this year for the production of Grease. The performances are the result of six months of hard work and dedication, with rehearsals every week – even during half term. I am blown away by the talent shown by our students both on stage, in the band, and behind the scenes. Well done, everyone!"
Miss Keeble expressed her immense pride in both students and staff, describing the performances as “amazing, epic, stunning, and incredible all at once!”
