Meet a member of our brilliant West End Week creative team… This is Jess! 👋

Jess is a professional actor, director and theatre facilitator, bringing a wealth of experience, creativity and energy to West End Week.

Throughout the week, Jess worked alongside our young performers, supporting them to develop their performance skills, explore their creativity and, of course, have plenty of fun along the way! ❤️

✨ THE IMPACT OF WEST END WEEK ✨

West End Week is about so much more than what happens on stage. Thanks to the support of Felixstowe Rotary Club, two scholarship places are funded each year. West End Week and The Actor’s Training Academy match this support with a further two places, creating four fully funded opportunities for young people who may otherwise face financial barriers to taking part.

This summer, one of those young people was Monica. 🌟 Monica said:

“I absolutely loved West End Week! I was nervous before I started, but after the first day I was so excited to go back! I made new friends, learnt lots of new choreography, acting and singing, and felt really supported by everyone.

I loved having my own moment to shine with my solo and acting lines, and I was so proud of myself for doing it. West End Week has made me feel much more confident and I’ve learnt so much.”

Her parent shared:

“We put Monica forward for West End Week because we wanted her to discover that her confidence, talent and ability belong entirely to her.

There was a lot of anxiety in the lead-up to the week, but the support, encouragement and belief from Grace, Mark and the entire team was incredible. After just the first day, Monica came out beaming.

Watching Monica grow in confidence, believe in herself and realise that she can walk into a room on her own and shine has been incredibly special.”

This is why we do what we do. ❤️

We want young people to leave West End Week not only as stronger performers, but believing a little more in themselves and what they are capable of.

✨ AND THAT’S A WRAP ON WEST END WEEK 2026! ✨

We can’t quite believe it’s over! 🎭

Friday was spent putting the finishing touches together, getting performance-ready and preparing to share everything our incredible young performers had achieved throughout the week.

And what a showcase it was! 🌟

After a week of West End masterclasses, new skills, hard work, laughter and LOTS of performing, seeing everyone step out in front of an audience and give it everything was the perfect way to finish West End Week 2026.

A huge THANK YOU to every young person who joined us, our brilliant creative team and all the families who supported us throughout the week. ❤️

🎪🤹 FROM WATCHING THE PROS… TO HAVING A GO! 🤹🎪

Just LOOK at them go! 👏✨

After watching the brilliant Fools Hardy Circus demonstrate their skills, it was time for our West End Week performers to get stuck in!

Alongside our work on The Greatest Showman, our circus skills workshop gave everyone the chance to step outside their comfort zones, try something completely different and develop a whole new set of performance skills. 🎭

There was plenty of concentration, determination, teamwork and LOTS of laughter along the way! ❤️

We absolutely love being able to offer experiences like this as part of West End Week because performing is about so much more than just singing, dancing and acting.

🎪😱 OUR FACES WHEN WE SEE THE CIRCUS DEMONSTRATING THEIR SKILLS… 😱🎪

Every summer at West End Week, we make sure to include a skills-based workshop that gives our young people the opportunity to develop their performance skills beyond singing, dancing and acting. ✨

And this year, alongside our work on The Greatest Showman, what better skill to explore than… CIRCUS! 🎪🤹

We were joined by the brilliant Fools Hardy Circus, who certainly got this reaction when they showed us how it was done! 😂👏

Then it was over to our young performers to have a go themselves; learning new skills, taking on new challenges and, most importantly, having LOTS of fun along the way.

One of our favourite things about West End Week is giving young people the chance to experience different areas of the performing arts and discover something completely new - a secret talent! ❤️
