Performances
Along with in-class performances and studio showcases, Next Generation offers external performance opportunities to all of our members throughout the year.
Our performance group runs on an audition basis with auditions being held throughout the year before each upcoming performance. This allows the best performers to be selected for each performance and allows performing opportunities for as many members as possible year round.
Our performance group take part in competitions across the country throughout the year. The members compete in group and solo routines in Musical Theatre, Monologue and Singing. The group has had huge success over the past years with many of their pieces placing and even winning overall.
Our Drama classes also compete annually in One Act Play festivals, performing a variety of plays from different genres of theatre.

One of the main events in the calendar is the annual Lowry Showcase, which takes place at the Lowry Theatre in Salford.

There may even be a chance to perform for Mickey Mouse at Disneyland Paris next year!
