It comes after a variety of amazing performances by Stagecoach schools throughout the year, as many students missed out on performing live in 2020. Performing arts helps build on the student's creativity, courage, and skills that will stay with them for the rest of their lives.
Disneyland Paris, which has been open since 1992, is home to theme parks, entertainment, and nature parks, all dedicated to world-renowned Disney characters such as Cinderella, Aladdin, Toy Story, and many others.
Stagecoach South Tyneside Principal Catherine Hymers said: "We were meant to take a troupe back in 2021 but it was cancelled due to Covid so our performers have been very patiently waiting for an extra year. Our troupe is aged between 5-18 years old and they are such a lovely, talented little team. We have loved rehearsing since before Christmas for the parade to sing the big sing Lion King Medley at the Castle with the Disney characters, and we were even lucky enough to get through the auditions to perform in The Disney Stage Show!"
Stagecoach Performing Arts reported a seven percent rise in student enrolments since 2020 and prides itself on building Creative Courage For Life among students. The Global film entitled 'Stagecoach Performing Arts Presents' celebrating Stagecoach's students in real time was released in June 2022.
