Theatre students got a taste of life in the West End as they took to the stage to perform a Michael Jackson medley.

Pupils from Stagecoach Barnet, based in Cromer Road, New Barnet, performed at Her Majesty’s Theatre in Westminster last Sunday alongside pupils from other Stagecoach schools across the country.

The young performers sang and danced to Earthsong, as well as remixes of Beat It and Smooth Criminal.

Stagecoach Barnet principal Jenny-Marie Cooper said: “I am delighted that pupils from my school had the opportunity to perform at this iconic venue. Everyone has had a brilliant time rehearsing for the production and it was great to see them on stage.

“Performances like this showcase the hard work of our students, providing them with memorable experiences and life skills which they can use throughout their careers. I have no doubt that for these talented students it will not be the last time they perform on a West End stage.”
