Grease the Musical

The world’s best-loved musical came to Leicester Curve Theatre in September, grittier and more glamorous than ever before; “Grease, the musical” starring Peter Andre!

On Saturday 14th September the Virtual School arranged a trip to the theatre for 14 young people along with some of their foster carers. Some of the young people were surprised to see a celebrity in the show with songs sung by Peter Andre himself, They enjoyed a vibrant and lively show focusing on the trials and tribulations of teenage life: relationships, school and life choices. The feedback from young people and carers was really positive, and all enjoyed joining in with the songs, (as well as the free ice-cream).
