The show went really well, well done to everyone. We managed to finish the set in time which was a relief. Really enjoyed organising the show and performing in it.

I think everyone did really well on the shows last week. Well done everyone! :) I'd like to say sorry to Mrs Grantham about the changing rooms. We should have all been more responsible for our own things. I really enjoyed putting the show together and loved the two nights performing. Well done to the award winners too they were all definitely deserving!

On friday, the day after the dance show, me and Emma Rignall brought all the costumes on the rack from behind the stage back to the drama studio. Once they was back me Emma Harrison and Danni Hoe sorted all the costumes out in the bags so that they didnt get creased and was hung on hangers.

I think the turn out was really good both nights and also the way we had lots out of other years in our dance show obviously brought more people in.
Also me and shannon went round forms most mornings aswell and beth and everyone and i think having our own blocks to do was a good idea for if one of children said we'll give you it tomorrow then you'll know to deffinatly go in that form because they'll have the money! We had a costume dilemma but sorted it out which helped alot and everyone helped tieing each other bows for 'i was here' and we had alot of the girls practicing back stage which showed how much they all tried to make the dance show successful.

The shows seemed to go really fast... once you'd come off for one dance you was on for another straight away :)
Also everyone did so well and all should be proud of themselves! Everyone was organised and helped each other along the way.
The end of Rhythm nation i think came a shock to the audience, i think thats why we got the responces we did.
Kirsty Moore

Also i think this would be a good opportunity to apologise to Mrs G!
First night i stayed after with miss hardy and mrs G to tidy up, it was all from the people who had cut the tops and leggings whilst in the changing room. There was black pieces of material everywhere!
Maybe next year (if they have a dance show) it would be a good idea to tell them to sort out there costumes at home like if they had to cut holes and things.
also instead of rushing off everyone should check they've collected everything of there's.
We also had people losing there clothes like shorts, ect. maybe maybe it would have been good to have someone in the room to watch people nd make sure thingsdont go missing?

I've been talking to a few people who came to see the show and they was confused at the way there was video clips, they didnt see how they went with the dances.
when you try and explain they still dont get it and think it was pointless... did it only make sense to us?
i also think we should have practiced in our costumes for the practice. As in full costume so we knew if we had everything and things worked the way we wanted it. Because even though we practiced in them everytime we did practice and even on the shows i still managed to stand on my skirt at the same part.

charlie

Tonight is the show, and prior to that I designed an dance audition poster for our dance show. Me and Shannon then put them up around school so that people were aware of our auditions and when to come. Now that this has been done we have many different year groups performing dances in out show. We then had to make the show posters which were done by Shaunie, Katie and Lucia. Me and Shannon put them up around school and took the audition posters down. Along with the posters made the tickets were done as well, we are still currently selling them. Good luck everyone! - Nicola Kay

 Just to let you all know Miss Hardy is staying at school before both nights of the dance show so we can start turning up from 5:30 so that we can all get ready

Beth Vowles i have not tried any army pants on, so i shall do that:)

Emma Rignallx

Only a few people have tried the army pants on so to help the costume people please can you try some on, or give your size so they go in the correct bags

Bethanie Vowles

People have started to bring their costumes into the drama studio, Laura Derbyshire has took some of the army pants but we hope to have all of them back by Wednesday:)

Emma Rignallx

Everyone should now have their hot pants (both black and white ones) thankyou to jodie for getting them over the weekend! Everyone just needs to bring their own costumes in from home and then we'll be sorted. The army pants are being collected and shall be put in the correct bags for the show on wednesday night!

 

Sophie

Last lesson i took the old running order and rewrote it on the computer saying whether dances started and finished on/off the stage and emailed it to miss Hardy

Bethanie Vowles

i've bought the hotpants for everyone who needed them. if you didnt pay please could you just bring £1.50 for me tomorrow, or £3.00 if you asked for a black and a white pair :)

Jodie x

Me, Sophie, Ryan and Kirsty put all the costumes in their correct bags with the names of everyone on today:) we just need to get the costumes that your all bringing on Monday and then were sorted:)

Emma Rignall:)

we have made the posters for the dance show, including the theme and all the information needed, they also include relevent pictures which will draw peoples attention. we have put them up everywhere around school.

Shannon Rhodes.

me, becca and emma rignall sold 4 tickets this morning, but most people said that they are going to pay on the door:)

kirstie and becca:)x

Me and Beth have emailed the front office and Tim to get a dance show message in the bulletin. It tells you what time to be there on the show night, the alice in wonderland theme and the price of the tickets.

Jodie

i think the video clips Vicky harman and Emma rignall selected fits well with the scheduling of the dances and will make a impact towards the audience and the dance show.
Emma Harrison.

On the 22nd March 2012 Mr Williman sent us a letter of confirmation for permission to hold the dance show. He was happy to grant the request and wished us the very best with our BTEC course and the show.


Maisie Hollingsworth

Me and Emma Rignall chose the video clips. Chose the clips from through out the film so they explained the film.


Victoria Harman

Me, Kirstie and Charlie have finished the jobs we had to do, so if anybody wants any help with theirs, then just say :)

Becca Theobald

i have started to sell tickets in and out of school, its took alot of asking asking around and persuading people but slowly more and more people are buying them. This is positive because we know we'll have a guarunteed audience aswel as people buying them on the door
Bethanie Vowles

The year 7 disco organised for friday 20th April has been cancelled as because nobody managed to produce and sell tickets. This is a dissapointment because it could of been a good fundraising idea and could of raised alot of money to put towards the Dance show. It took alot of time and discussion to plan but was not sucessful in happening.

All the lighting is sorted so were ready for the dance show:)and tim knows what to do now:)were also having smoke!:Dits all coming together:)

kirstie:)

We have started painting the Alice painting.

Thanks alot,

Victoria Harman

Mushrooms and playing cards have arrived from Baintons. Asked them to make them because we knew they could build them properly at the scale we wanted. Started painting them.


Victoria Harman

I have emailed Miss Hardy the list of lighting we want for each dance:)

Becca Theobald.

Becca! ?

I agree with Jodie A lot needs to be sorted before next week, we should work together on the running order and check we have all the right video clips sorted.

Bethany.

i think once we're back at school we need to have a long meeting to sort things such as the running order and make sure everyone knows exactly what clothes to buy so that we all look the same. i think we also need to get a lot of people selling tickets to get as many sold as possible.

Jodie :)

I think the student night is a really good idea, so we can encourage people to come both nights, also the year 7 disco posters are all up and tickets printed and given to the front office.

Danni

everyone should have a copy of the costume list.. We decided that you don't have to wear the red and white gene pants if you don't want to for superbass, aslong as you wear either the red or white clothing. All the items you need to bring yourself are straight forward. The 'Do it like a dude' dance says hoodie and hot pants but if you would feel more comfortable wearing joggers instead that's not a problem! For soulmate there will be gold ribbon around the waist to break up the white, like on 'i was here' with the black and red.
