`Oh What A Night` - Show (Nov)

A budding young performer, Lewis Fitt in Year 11, has made his directorial debut with a show called `Oh What A Night`.     Lewis and his committed cast were met by a standing ovation from the audience as the show came to a close on Friday evening.

A budding young performer from The Priory Ruskin Academy in Grantham  has made his directorial debut to a sold out audience.  The inspirational Year 11 student, Lewis Fitt, came up with the idea of directing and producing a show, based on the popular West End production, ‘Jersey Boys’, after he performed in the hugely successful school production of Les Miserables  at the Academy over the summer.  After 8 weeks of intensive rehearsals including casting, choreographing, lighting and directing,  Lewis and his committed cast were met by a standing ovation from the audience as the show came to a close on Friday evening.    Mrs Victoria Rossington, Assistant Headteacher at The Priory Ruskin Academy and Musical Director said,  ‘I am so proud to have worked with such a dedicated and talented cast;   the show was a huge success and the work they have put in embodies the ‘Ruskin Respects’ ethos evident throughout the Academy`.
