Burnham drama group puts on a ‘hair-raising’ performance!

-

Burnham-based Curtain Call school of Performing Arts is teaming up with a local hairdresser to put on a charity extravaganza with a difference.

The event will be full of musical numbers to get you tapping and humming along and, unusually, it will also showcase some brand new ‘funky’ hair dos and extensions by the staff from Hair By Design in Brent Knoll.

The event will be held on Friday 28th March at Rookery Manor and aims to raise money for the Children’s Hospice South West.

Some big raffle prizes will be available, including tickets to see Phantom Of The Opera in London plus the use of a villa in Florida.

As part of the evening’s entertainment, there will be a talent show for six finalists who were chosen from a prior heat earlier this month.

“If you’ve ever seen a Curtain Call show before, don’t miss this one!” says principal Patricia. “Our two top sets of Musical Theatre students are doing some fantastic routines, even some of our teachers are involved so you can be assured of a real showbiz night!”

“I’m so excited about the whole evening” added Lisa of Hair by Design, “I’ve been dancing round the salon humming all the tunes, I can’t wait to get my hands on the kids hair to add colour extensions and create some funky styles!”

Both Patricia and Lisa are hoping to raise a lot of money for the children’s hospice. One of Curtain Call’s students, Terri Davies, is having her head shaved on the night and has already got over £200 in sponsorship.
