Dauntsey's take to the stage

Pupil's at Dauntsey's staged their annual December musical, with a lively and engaging performance of Guys and Dolls.

The many months of hard work and preparation came together at the end of term when the cast and crew performed a magnificent four-night run of the hit musical to a packed theatre.

The cast, made up of Fifth and Sixth Form pupils, had been preparing and rehearsing since auditions took place at the end of last Summer Term.

It was a resounding success, with audience members of all ages enjoying the performance.

Chris Walker, Director of Drama, said: "The dedication and commitment shown by all those involved in the musical was fantastic – when watching the final performances, it is easy to forget that these are pupils who will have been sitting in lessons that morning and even playing out on a sports pitch that very afternoon.

"It is an enormous ask to be involved in a school production, and all the cast, crew and musicians delivered brilliantly on their commitment.

"Being involved in a school production is a fantastic experience for pupils – they learn a huge amount about themselves in a short period of time, challenging and stretching themselves, whilst also developing new and often unexpected friendships.

"It is an experience I know that none of them will forget."

Dauntsey's School is an independent boarding school for boys and girls aged 11 to 18 near Devizes in Wiltshire. It was founded in 1542 and has grown into a thriving, modern co-educational school with more than 800 pupils. Find out more about Dauntsey's School.
