In the charity's own words
We give 8 to 18 year olds in Halifax and surrounding areas opportunities to be on stage, help out backstage, improve their acting, singing and dancing skills, boost their confidence, make life-long friends and have fun. We perform an annual musical, smaller concerts and use workshops to engage and develop their capabilities and skills for them to grow as independent, mature and responsible people.
