Tenerife October 2015
The Gillian Banks Theatre School has just returned from hotter climates , namely Tenerife where they have undertaken a vocational and fund raising visit raising 3366 euros. 15 performers travelled to Tenerife to raise monies for a local charity 'Live Arico ' who rescue and save the lives of abondoned dogs on the Spanish Island , which is a major problem since they do not have RSPCA or any animal support from the government and the numbers of dogs and cruelty to animals is on the increase given the financial situation across the world. The Theatre School organised for a patron of the school ' Nik Page' who played Jean Val Jean in the West End production of Les Miserables to appear alongside students from the School at the Rotherham and Barnsley Chamber of Commerce's President's Ball at Magna in May and helped raise over £10,000 for local charities in Rotherham , so to repay Nik for his kindness the school organised a return visit to the island for Nik's choosen charity.
The week has been a tremendous success with 4 performances being undertaken throughout the week, 1 in a 5 star hotel ' The Anthelia Grand' with a large international audience, 1 in Los Gigantes in the north of Tenerife , another for professional acts The Dreams and 2 Chique in Las Americas and the fourth one at the Palms on Golf Del Sur. All the performances were sold out, hence the grand sum of over 3000 euros being raised.There were 15 professional and semi professional singers and dancers who travelled around the island along with sound systems and microphones as well as costumes and props to facilitate the professional standard of performance.
Following the successful week, requests for future performances have already been made and opportunites for professional venues have been received to make the next visit even more succesful and beneficial.
