As it’s Thursday we won’t let you down and even though our weekly claps have stopped, we haven’t just yet.
The song we had prepared for this week has been a struggle as people have been poorly, computers have been crashing and with everything that is going on in the US and the world at the moment- we felt it wasn’t the right time to share our chosen song.
So instead myself and my MD Mark Thompson have chosen one of our favourite songs and in fact perhaps our favourite moment from one of our many shows.

Sit back and enjoy - you may need a grab some tissues!!

Thursday means one thing..... we are back... but this week as it’s half term, we thought we would give our voices a rest and instead give you a wonderful treat of some of our highlights from over the past few years. Thanks for your help George Crerar on pulling this together!

This Summer GTSS will have been running for 18 years! An amazing achievement and we have had and have still got some of the North East’s finest talent. With a fantastic alumni to show for it!

Grab a cuppa, sit back and enjoy......

As always we dedicate this to all of our key workers during these unprecedented times. Thank you!

These Thursdays are coming around fast and this one couldn’t come quick enough!

A real treat for you this week as I enlisted the help of a couple of the amazing Gala Techs and together with my MD we have managed to have more of our amazing stage school involved.

There’s old and new faces galore and of course those amazing voices a plenty!

As always we are dedicating this song to all of our key workers and this week a special mention to all of our school teachers who have a Mammoth task ahead of them trying to make our schools safe for our children.

Thank you 🌈

It’s Thursday Night.......

Tonight we have something extra special for you! We have given our usual gang the week off as they prepare for their song for next week. So I called on a few familiar faces to help me out with this weeks song.
Singing from their homes in Durham, Hartlepool, Gateshead, London and over 3000 miles away in New York- USA.
Sit back and enjoy the amazing sound of 8 of our past students;
Luke Antony Neville, Katie Brace, Georgia Lennon, Andrew M. Ewart, Travis Ross, Hannah-Jo Wolfe, Luke Henderson and Ethan Scott.

This week we would like to dedicate this song to all of the amazing key workers and also to
Captain Tom Moore as he celebrates his 100th Birthday! Many Happy Returns Sir!

This week we have a real treat for you! I think it might be my favourite so far!
We dedicate this to all our key workers as always; but this week we would also like to thank all our children and parents for being so amazing; working from home, home schooling and parenting is hard- but everyone has shown their true colours and shone like the stars they are! Here’s to you!

Stay safe 🌈

Students at the Gala Theatre & Cinema Stage School haven’t let the outbreak stop them from creating inspiring performances to lift people’s spirits.

The students have been using online calls to record themselves performing popular showtunes, before sharing the videos on Facebook. Renditions of the musical numbers Seasons of Love and You Will Be Found have already had thousands of views.

Their biggest online performance was posted yesterday in time for Clap for Carers and featured 55 members clapping on their doorsteps while students sang a Les Mis classic.
