April 2026 - CABARET info

The Dance Shack annual Drama and Singing Showcase - "CABARET"
Saturday 25th April 2025 at 7PM
at: Elizabeth Green Hall, Manor House School,
Manor House Lane, Little Bookham, Leatherhead, Surrey, KT23 4EN
This show is an opportunity to showcase the performances that can't fit into the big annual shows. This is for all our wonderful singers and actors. There is no dancing!
If your child is in the following classes, they are automatically taking part and have already begun rehearsing and learning in their classes:
Thursday 7pm Drama, WEST BYFLEET with Rianna
Saturday 9.45am Drama, SURBITON with Laura
Friday 5.15pm Drama, LEATHERHEAD with Lucy
It is also open to any of our Musical Theatre students who are 11+ to take part if they would like to prepare a short acting piece or song. If they are singing, Garth can create backing tracks, but the choice of song is up to the singers themselves. Pieces must be limited to around 1min30secs each for solos, or 2min for duets/groups, so we can be fair to all students who wish to take part!
UPDATE 20/04/2026
DRAMA STUDENTS-
Drama students have all had information from their teachers on what they should bring and wear for the performance this Saturday.
SINGERS-
For all students taking part who are preparing their own songs, they can wear whatever they feel is suitable. Generally we suggest something that suggests the character of their song, or simply smart evening wear (for example, a nice dress, and smart shoes) they are welcome to bring a couple of options with them.

These students will have a costume provided, but they must bring their "Blacks" to wear underneath.
