Celebrating 20 Years Gala Show

On Saturday 29th March 2025, we celebrated the ‘old’ and the ‘new’ with a very special gala performance! We were overwhelmed with excitement for this show and it was incredible to see over 120 performers take the stage to perform in a variety of pieces.

Celebrating the ‘old’, our audience were treated to nostalgic pieces such as Thriller (originally performed in 2008!) and the energetic 80s number (originally performed in 2014). We also celebrated the ‘new’ with new pieces such as Rihanna’s Ladies, the street/commercial piece and Take Me To Heaven a fun and cheeky theatre jazz routine. Our choir also performed ‘Lean on Me’ and ‘Son of a Preacher Man’.

Due to selling out the one-off show in less than 24 hours, we opened up the dress rehearsal to an audience ensuring no-one missed out!

Emma and Katie Brewer talked on stage in between the numbers sharing stories from the last 20 years which told the story of how First Dance Studios came about and they too kept the audience entertained with funny tales from the past!
