More than 450 student singers, dancers and musicians from the Diocese of Maitland Newcastle’s 11 secondary schools gathered on Thursday for the showcase, which was built around the theme Broadway Melodies and Hollywood Harmonies.
Students performed numbers from films including La La Land, Deadpool, Lion and 8 Mile and Broadway shows such as Mamma Mia!, Dirty Dancing and Matilda.
Organiser Michelle Burgess said the showcase was an opportunity for teachers to share ideas and students to be inspired. “We want to make sure every student has access to be on this historic stage and to work with a professional crew.”
