17th December 2010 - Belle
The Langstone Senior students had been working hard throughout the early part of 2010 to write a new musical based on Dickens' A Christmas Carol, and were involved with every aspect of its production. With familiar storylines, and a new, exciting twist, the performance was well-received and the young people involved gave fantastic performances!
10h April 2011/1st June 2011 - Sparkle and Shine
The Llanover students joined forces with Cor Y Fenni, the Abergavenny non-profit community youth choir, to perform a new musical. Sparkle and Shine! is based on the themes of tolerance, respect and friendship in aid of South Wales Charity The Sparkle Appeal and raised a fantastic £160. Furthermore, on 1st June, Academy students from our three branches joined together with Cor Casnewydd and Cor Y Fenni to record the musical's official soundtrack. 232 copies of the musical will now be made available free of charge to every primary school from Blaenau Gwent, Cardiff, Monmouthshire, Newport and Torfaen.
