Spotlight School Of Performing Arts

[Vicki]

Spotlight School Of Performing Arts was set up in 1894 by retired Broadway performer Anna Grey. She wanted a way to educate young performers and the school seemed like the perfect way to do that. Originally the school was just open on after schools and weekends but that soon changed when Anna decided that it wasn't enough. Students needed to have boundaries and a good education to get anywhere in the industry as she soon found out, those who were allowed to stay up really late or were given too much homework often seemed to find the strain too much and their work would ultimately end up suffering.





So there it was the boarding school was formed, the school moved to a better location with the space for dorms as well as the regular school buildings. Scholarships are offered to those good enough to win them and others must audition to get in. Places aren't always given purely for performance ability but how hard you try, how much you want it and what you're willing to do to get there. Those who aren't quite as good but try harder are worth so much more to the school than those who are amazing but never seem to try.





Every year there is a talent show in the theatre, it is a well known fact that talent spotters can often be found in the audience, the teachers are known to give their opinions on their students to these spotters and so it is majorly important to remain on their good side all year. With so much riding on that show competition is fierce, they all want to be the best, be seen and be chosen but only a few can.

Will you be a chosen one?
