AND ALL THAT JAZZ!
ACS Hillingdon students put on stellar performance of Broadway hit
ACS Hillingdon High School recently transported audiences back to the glitz and glamour of the Roaring Twenties with a dazzling production of Chicago: Teen Edition. Filled with show-stopping musical numbers, sharp choreography, and all the drama of the Broadway classic, the performance captivated everyone in attendance.
What made this production truly special was that it was entirely student-led. From music and lighting to stage design and choreography, every aspect of the show was curated by our talented students. Their dedication and creativity shone through in every scene, bringing the world of Chicago to life with remarkable energy and professionalism.
The production not only showcased the incredible artistic talent within our school but also highlighted the teamwork and commitment that make ACS Hillingdon's performing arts community so special.
Being part of the school production of Chicago has not only allowed me to develop my creativity and teamwork skills, but it has also helped me to grow as an individual by building my confidence, resilience and ability to express myself in new ways.
Directing and choreographing our school production of Chicago has been an exhilarating journey of creativity and collaboration; bringing this iconic musical to life requires a mix of precision, passion and teamwork. From teaching Fosse-inspired choreography to shaping the storytelling with direction, the students have embraced every challenge with energy and commitment. Watching their growth, from mastering some complex dance sequences to embodying the compelling characters and singing with jazz flare and harmony has been extremely rewarding.
