Hello, I’m Robyn and I play Maria. I have really enjoyed taking part in the production. I have had so much fun and have learnt a lot. It has been a challenge remembering all the lines and the dances, but I am so glad I had the chance to take part.
My name is Edem. Being in West Side Story has been loads of fun and hard work. I play the part of Tony in the show, which I was really pleased to be picked for. The teachers have been very good because they tell you when you are wrong and you learn from it. I think that this year's school production will be the best we have ever done and I hope you all enjoy it.
Hi, I’m Kate and I am playing a character called Anita. She is the leader of the girls in West Side Story. I think that the whole experience has been unbelievable. Yes, we have hard times, but at the same time we have had lots of fun. I really hope that every single performer has had as much fun as I had, and that they will remember the best moments for the rest of their lives.
Hi. My name is Lenny and I play the role of Action. Action is the most aggressive person in the Jets. Also Action leads the Jets when Riff and Tony die in a tragic death. It is also a great privilege to work with such a great cast and I have had a wonderful time in the show. I'd like to say a big thanks to all the staff who have worked and put up with us!
Hello, my name is Beverley and I am a senior singer in West Side Story. This is my second performance at school and I think it is very enjoyable. Since being in West side Story, I have built up my confidence to perform in front of an audience and in the future I hope to do more performances. Finally, I would like to say “A huge thank you” to Miss Smith and Miss Whitehead for helping me build up my confidence and giving me tips on how to become a better performer.
