Jack jumping small web.JPGEncore!

The Dancers' Company are delighted that their forthcoming show - Encore! - is to be performed on Friday 1st June at 11.00am and 5.00pm in the Markova Theatre.  This new show is a fundraising event for a new charity Dance Again that was formed by the Widdowson family following the successful rehabilitation of former Tring Park dance graduate, Jack Widdowson.  Jack was attacked and badly injured in November 2011 but has made a remarkable recovery and the charity aims to give injured dancers immediate access to high quality medical care.

Encore! will feature a newly created work choreographed by Jack Widdowson made especially for the Dancer’s Company. There will be a premier of a dance from Tring Park choreographers Terry Wright and Lorraine Jones for the male dancers, and excerpts from the beautiful and haunting ‘Stabat Mater’ choreographed by Robert Cohan for the female dancers and a Classical Pas de Deux.

Tickets will be £3 for students and £5 for adults and any further donations to the charity will be most welcome.

BTEC_A4_web.JPGSecond from Last in the Sack Race

from the novel by David Nobbs adapted for stage by Michael Birch

Set between 1935 and 1953, Second from Last in the Sack Race is Michael Birch's wry stage adaptation of David Nobbs's northern rites-of-passage novel.  It traces the oft-troubled childhood of Henry Pratt, a boy almost as unfortunate as his surname, but as resilient as the British in the war years that form the centrepiece of an episodic, yet smooth-flowing show stuffed with humour, pathos and nuggety northern nous.

Performances at the Markova Theatre on Friday 15 June at 2.30 & 7.30 and Saturday 16 June at 7.30pm

To book go to What's on  or Tel. 01442 821516.

 

 

An Evening of Wine, Song and Dance

Hosted by Al Murray

Join us and help raise funds for the Tring Park School Bursary Fund
at the Tabernacle, Notting Hill
on Wednesday 3rd October 2012

Vital support for our talented students is under threat from possible future cuts to the Government's Music and Dance Scheme www.musicanddanceschools.com. This will put many of our most talented performing arts students' dreams in jeopardy.  We already offer substantial bursary funding from our own resources this will need to be increased to  bridge this funding gap.  At least a third of our students need some form of bursary funding.

An Evening of Wine, Song and Dance includes a performance arranged and choreographed specially for the evening and performed by past and present students, dinner and a fundraising auction hosted by Al Murray - 'The Pub Landlord'.  The evening will provide a fantastic opportunity for Tring Park students to work with Drew McOnie - a Tring Park Alumnus and rising star in the world of Dance.

To make the event as successful as possible the School is seeking some exceptional auction items. If you are able to donate please complete the Prize Donation Form.
