Great Yarmouth's Ormiston Venture Academy pupils have put on a performance of Fame.
The Year 7 to Year 11 pupils displayed music, dance, and drama skills to tell the story of the lives of young hopeful performing arts students at the Fame school.
Isla-Jade who took on the lead role of Carmen Diaz in the show, said: "Fame was an amazing and also challenging experience.
"It has opened up my eyes to what my future will be like when I leave school to attend a performing arts college.
"I loved helping put together some of the choreography and pushing myself out of my comfort zone."
Emiliya, who played Mabel Washington, said: "Working on Fame has been exhilarating.
"Through the hysterical comedies, unpredictable romances, and devastating tragedies, we formed deep-rooted friendships, founded on patience, talent, and passion."
Simon Gilbert-Barnham, principal at Ormiston Venture Academy, said: “I am so incredibly proud of everyone who took part in our production of Fame and made it such an incredible success.
"The show was amazing to watch, showcasing both our students’ remarkable talent and also their unwavering commitment and hard work in the pursuit of excellence.
“I know I speak for everyone when I say a huge thank you to Miss Gedge and Mrs Behm for directing the show, Mrs Roper-Cornwell for all her hard work behind the scenes and of course the live orchestra led by Mr Ward and Mrs Clayton.
"This performance has been truly inspiring for our future generations of performers and we can’t wait to see the next show.”
