'The Gilded Gala' highlights the importance of supporting one and other through different life struggles
The dancers wore a range of vibrant costumes and performed various dance styles to help spread the key messages.
Many of the pieces were choreographed by the dancers with guidance from their teachers.
A member of the audience commented how “the performance took my breath away and I am in awe of the talent of these students.”
Dance teacher Claire Guntrip added, “I am really looking forward to seeing what the girls can achieve throughout the rest of the year, if this is the standard of performance after only four months of their dance course. They all worked extremely hard and it really paid off in the end. It's wonderful seeing them come into their own as performers.”
