Anything Goes
Anything Goes is Cole Porter's iconic, joyful musical. With a story by PG Wodehouse, the show features heart-warming romance, mistaken identity, gangsters and a fantastic, toe-tapping score, including 'I Get A Kick Out Of You', 'You're The Top', 'Blow, Gabriel, Blow', and of course the iconic title number 'Anything Goes'.
This production features nearly 250 students on stage and behind the scenes, and performed in a professional theatre with a full orchestra, this may well be the biggest production ever seen by RGS.

Dare To Be Different
A devised production celebrating the lives and stories of those who have pushed the boundaries and refused to conform, and who have changed the world as we know it. Featuring the ENTIRE First Form, and performed at the Harlequin Theatre
The Magic Walnut
Terry is terrified...of everything...especially flying...which isn't great if you are a swan. Being afraid of the one thing that you really are meant to be able to do is a bit of a downer.
Terry's past holds the key to his predicament, but will he be able to overcome his Terrifying phobia? or 'Terry-flying-phobia'? (Thank you) and make the flight on Migration day, or will he get left behind?
Is there such a thing as magic? Can it solve all of his problems? Or is it about the magic within? (no prizes for guessing the answer to this one)

Venue: Concert Hall
