In celebration of World Theatre Day, schools will take centre stage at the Olivier Award-winning London production of Starlight Express, courtesy of LW Entertainment, Michael Harrison Entertainment and Lloyd Webber Harrison Musicals, with support from The School Trip.
Schools across the UK are being invited to enter ‘I Am the Starlight’ – a unique competition where a group from one primary and one secondary school will win the chance to see the show and then perform live on stage at the spectacular Starlight Auditorium, Troubadour Wembley Park Theatre on 26 March – just ahead of World Theatre Day.
To take part, schools need to perform, record and upload a section of the iconic song ‘Starlight Express’. Entries will be judged by a panel including members of the Starlight Express company, and will be judged on their musicality, vocal technique, stage presence and expression!
Michael Harrison says: "Engagement in the arts changes lives. The transformative power of music for children is universally recognised, and I am thrilled to be launching this opportunity with STARLIGHT EXPRESS. This is your school’s chance to shine. Could you be the Starlight?”
