What a summer this has been!
Wicked Cast 2026….. Take a bow!!! 👏🏽🤩
Our sensational Wicked cast learnt, rehearsed, recorded and filmed this entire project in just FIVE DAYS. This here is a tiny snip. Head over to our YouTube to see our full video.
Choreography. Harmonies. Vocals. Camera shots. Staging. Direction. Props. Performance. Character. And so much more.
Our cast includes many of our wonderful Harc Studios students, alongside incredibly talented young performers who train at schools across the UK.
To the Principals who supported your students in joining us this summer — thank you. It means so much to us and it was a pleasure working with everyone.
And to the families who travelled from different parts of the country to be involved… we are genuinely so flattered that you chose to spend your week with us. 💚
This year, we went BIG.
It is difficult to explain just how much work goes on behind the scenes to make something like this happen.
To our 2026 cast — you were incredible.
You worked unbelievably hard, showed true professionalism and gave everything you had all week.
The pace was FAST, the expectations were high, and you took every challenge completely in your stride.
Myself and the entire team are so proud of you.
This is Wicked… with a twist.
My own vision.
Different. Creative. Cinematic. Ambitious.
Something I had pictured in my head for a long time, and something I wanted to bring to life.
And I have to emphasise again…
THIS WAS ALL ACHIEVED IN FIVE DAYS!!!
There weren’t months of rehearsals.
We technically have just three rehearsal days before moving onto location for two full filming days on set.
That still blows my mind.
A huge thank you to my absolute dream team. I simply couldn’t create projects like this without you. You listen to my crazy ideas, work alongside me and somehow help turn what is in my head into reality. I couldn’t ask for more. 🙏🏽
Jack Hawitt — after countless Zoom calls, singing ideas to you and me explaining exactly how I wanted everything to sound, you simply listened and made it happen.
Not only that, our cast had the incredible opportunity to record their own vocals with you.
The vocals and harmonies are INSANE — and I still cannot believe what we managed to achieve in just half a day of recording.
WOW. Thank you. You are amazing!
🎥 And a very special mention to my dear friend Christopher Jeffers.
We have been friends since our very first professional job together back in 2010, and I absolutely adore working with you.
Thank you for your talent, your patience and for always understanding my vision.
You somehow take what is in my imagination and bring it to life on screen. Your work always blows the world away and the cast are so lucky to experience this with you.
You are incredible, and I am forever grateful.
Dream duo. Always. 🖤
To my wonderful teachers and staff. You are amazing and thank you for everything you do. Miss Danielle, thank you for assisting this year in rehearsals & Mr Nathaniel for helping on our set days.
Mr Harc - You are truly unreal and we cannot thank you enough.
Thank you to our amazing home Turton School Turton Sports Centre for our rehearsal space.
A huge thank you to our amazing Chaperones:
Maria, Mr Nathaniel, Ann, Megan and Eleanor.
And to the lovely Skrypt costumes for some of our lovely costumes!
And a big mention to the stunning Bolton Parish Church for letting us bring Wicked to life.
Finally, thank you to everyone who continues to support what we are creating.
I am unbelievably passionate about my job, my school, my students, passing my own professional experience onto the next generation and creating opportunities for young performers to learn, grow, be challenged and experience something completely different.
That is exactly what Stage To Screen is about.
And seeing what these young performers achieve makes every single hour of work worthwhile.
Now we need your help. 💚
