An outstanding production of ‘Guys and Dolls’ was enjoyed by many on the 6th and 7th March at Bishop Auckland Town Hall, as students from St John’s displayed their fabulous acting skills, musicality and talent during their inspiring performance of the popular musical.

All cast members impressed, with the leading roles showing maturity and passion through their performances of Nathan Detroit (Laurie Kalus, Year 12), Sky Masterson (Stuart Thompson, Year 10), Sarah Brown (Alice Byrne, Year 13) and Adelaide (Chloe Nattrass, Year 9) grabbing the audience with their enthusiasm and talent.

Under the directorial skill of Miss Natalie Kirkwood – English & Drama Teacher, students entertained their audiences on both evenings, with many overwhelmed by the impressive standard of the show.

A great sense of community was felt by all and there were even tears on the final night as the show came to an end. An incredible amount of hard work and dedication was shown by all staff and students involved, and plans are already underway for next year’s production!
