Summer Show: Could You Hug a Cactus?

Based on a collection of whimsical poems by Phillip Van Wagoner, Could You Hug A Cactus? is a musical revue that follows a group of kids as they come together to create a show that’s bursting with poems and creativity. 

One by one, they each share their imaginative creations, until a nervous performer panics and refuses to contribute a poem. Can the cast help them shed self-doubt and ignite a creative spark?

This year, Year 6 were fortunate enough to be able to showcase a live performance of the Summer Show to parents at the Waterside Theatre. Meanwhile, Year 3, 4 and 5 gave their rendition via video, which was showcased to parents this evening. A huge well done to all children who participated and, as always, Ms Wellings for orchestrating and executing the show so superbly.
