Sophie Norton

Sophie has always loved performing and helps us out each week at our sessions. We only see Sophie at certain times as during the summer season, she is a Haven Entertainer. She is fantastic with the kids and a great asset to our team. 

Holly

Holly is our youngest group leader, but has been with TheatreKidz Rowley since the start. Her confidence is developing and she is an all rounder, showing great enthusiasm for all aspects of the performances. Holly however, is our 'go to' when it comes to the younger children. If anyone is upset, nervous or unsure, along comes Holly and she looks after them. She's so kind and caring and the children love her. 

Jacob

Jacob has been with TheatreKidz Rowley since it opened and has been involved in every performance. He is very enthusiastic and willing to get involved in anything (including performing as a stepsister!). He is a great help with our refreshments, and helps the younger ones to know what they have to do. He is very confident and likes to have an input into the dance routines, helping out as much as possible. 

Lauren

Lauren is a great perfomer and role model to all of our TheatreKidz. She always shows enthusiasm and dedication to what she is doing and is so friendly and kind to the younger ones. She has developed in confidence over the time she has been at TheatreKidz and has shown a lot of commitment to every role she has been given. 

Ellee

Ellee has been with us for some time now, and her confidence over the last few months has soared. She's great with the younger ones and will help the others with anything at all. She is so bubbly, enthusiastic and a great role model to all of the TheatreKidz. 

Faith

Faith is our newest of the Team Leaders, joining us for our last productin, but she has made such an impact already. She is great with the younger ones and a real role model for them with her great attitude and enthusiasm. 

Odhinn

Since starting with us, Odhinn has grown significantly in confidence and performance skill and he is a very helpful and enthusiastic member of the group. He is developing as a performer and is great at helping our kids feel part of the family. 

Grace

As one of our older members, Grace is dedicated and enthusiastic about performing. She is doing her GCSE's this year and is still managing to commit to us each Saturday. She is such a friendly, welcoming person and the other kids really like her.
