🎭💻BEHIND THE SCENES💻🎭
Believe it or not, Tread is a lot more than just acting, singing and dancing!!! Running a successful theatre school for 20 years has been no mean feat! The work behind the scenes has taken years of development to progress to where we are today💜 Alongside our professional creative team we have a small but mighty admin and finance team who make Tread tick! Our team offer an amazing personable approach and after a VERY busy start to the term with new students and further training we finally got chance to sit down for a coffee and a catch up. Sadly Sarah couldn’t join us as she was busy working remotely in France🇫🇷 but here we are celebrating all the wins after a crazy busy start to our 20th year! We are so proud of our team and so grateful for everything you’ve helped Tread achieve💜

As we say hello to a brand new year at Tread, we wanted to take a moment to say a heartfelt good luck and goodbye to Issy💜😢 Issy joined Tread 5 years ago during one of our summer school weeks. She was shy and a little unsure but we recognised her musicality and great potential from day one. Issy stuck it out at Tread as a weekly student and went on to perform some fabulous lead roles in our Mini-Tread productions including her show-stopping vocal performance as Meena in SING! 🎤🎶 Issy spent her final summer school with us this year before saying her farewell to Tread as her family relocate to Sydney, Australia 🇦🇺
We are so proud of everything Issy has achieved during her time with us and sincerely hope she has been inspired to keep performing in her new home city. We will miss you so much Issy and wish you all the luck in the world as you start your new school today too. All of your friends at Tread will look forward to hearing your updates💜 Don’t forget: once a Treader - always a Treader 💜
