The Courtyard Performance and goodbyes

Fiona Clayton, Project Manager, writes:

The Youth Ensemble performed their hour-long version of The Winter's Tale at The Courtyard Theatre on Friday to an audience of 300+. I didn't think they could improve on Thursday night's performance, but once again they stepped up a gear and gave a gorgeous performance, one which proudced smiles, laughter and tears from the audience.
Following the post-show reception and presentation of certificates, we all returned to the rehearsal space to collect bags and say a final farewell. After more tears, hugs and goodbyes all 18 went their separate ways back to Cornwall, Whitby, Cumbria, Daventry, Stockton on Tees, Knutsford, Rugby, Surrey and London. They return to school in September as Shakespeare Youth Ambassadors, ready to continue the great work that's taken place in their school over the past 2 years. We wish them well and thank them for their enthusiasm and dedication over the past two weeks.
