Production cast welcomes theatre director
On 20th January, our Performing Arts Department was delighted to welcome theatre director and agent Anthony Williams from Keddie Scott Associates, who spent an inspiring and informative session working with students involved in the upcoming school production of CHICAGO: TEEN EDITION.
Anthony generously gave his time to observe rehearsals, watching the cast perform key scenes and musical numbers from the show. Drawing on his extensive experience within the theatre industry, he offered thoughtful feedback, practical guidance and professional direction to help students refine their performances as they prepare for their forthcoming shows.
In addition to working with the cast, students also had the valuable opportunity to take part in a dedicated Q&A session. During this time, Anthony shared insight into the realities of working in musical theatre, offering advice on auditions, representation and career pathways within the industry.
Visits from industry professionals play an important role within both our Enrichment and Careers Programmes, giving students first-hand exposure to the expectations and opportunities of the professional world. The cast and creative team of CHICAGO: TEEN EDITION found the experience extremely motivating as they continue rehearsals in anticipation of their upcoming performances.
Bridgewater School would like to thank Anthony and KSA for their time, expertise and encouragement, and we look forward to sharing the cast’s progress as show week approaches.
