Scoil Mhuire Creeslough are preparing to take to the stage tonight with Revolting Children, a spectacular stage production inspired by the beloved musical Matilda, with all three performances now officially sold out.
Taking place in Masinass Hall, the production features pupils from 5th and 6th class who have spent months preparing an unforgettable show filled with singing, dancing and acting.
Audiences will have the chance to enjoy performances tonight, Friday, May 29 at 7pm, Saturday, May 30 at 12 noon and again at 7pm.
Rehearsals first began back in February, with pupils and staff dedicating countless hours, including many afternoons and evenings after school, to bring the production to life. The children have been busy learning songs, and building confidence on stage. The commitment and enthusiasm shown by everyone involved has been extraordinary.
The production has truly become a whole-school effort, with staff across the school lending their support in every possible way. Teachers, SNAs and staff members have all played a part behind the scenes, helping with costumes, props, staging, music, organisation and rehearsals.
Inspired by the themes of courage, kindness and standing up for what is right, Revolting Children promises plenty of humour, heart and energy, while showcasing the incredible talent and personality of Scoil Mhuire’s pupils. The sold-out performances reflect the excitement around the village where the community are eagerly looking forward to seeing the children take to the stage.
Attendees can look forward to a half-time raffle, tuck shop, special event programme and an all-singing, all-dancing performance packed with humour and heart.
“Everyone at Scoil Mhuire is hugely proud of all involved and cannot wait to welcome audiences to what promises to be a truly memorable weekend of entertainment,” a spokesperson for the school said.
