School Productions
At Bury Grammar School, we provide students of all ages with the exciting opportunity to engage in a range of drama productions and musical performances.
Our vibrant repertoire of musical productions seamlessly blends the worlds of drama, music, dance, and backstage teams in exciting collaborations to showcase and develop our pupils’ talents.
The pinnacle of our schedule is undoubtedly the annual School Production. Produced to the highest professional standards, performances attract huge audiences who invariably leave delighted by the remarkable talent and enthusiasm displayed by our pupils.
Each year approximately 150 pupils immerse themselves into the production and have the opportunity to be involved in every facet of the production process - from the enthralling stage performances to the impressive orchestra, from the meticulous stage management and set design to the artistry of costume, hair and make-up. Our pupils also shine in front-of-house and publicity roles demonstrating their diverse skills and unwavering commitment.
Our School Production is a testament to the power of teamwork and collaboration, fostering skills that extend far beyond the stage. Pupils finish each production with newfound confidence and undoubtedly lasting memories of the fun they had.
"I LOVE participating in the school production as it allows me to feel part of something bigger than myself - a brilliant team working together towards our goal. It also offers me the chance to make new friendships with people from other areas of BGS.''
