Torquay students get unique opportunity to perform at Disneyland

Forty one talented students from Stagecoach Performing Arts in Torquay and Newton Abbot performed in the illustrious “Dance The Dream” event to thousands of guests lining the iconic Main Street at the world-famous Disneyland Park in Paris. 

More than 1,000 people from 28 Stagecoach Performing Arts schools attended the event and next year’s promises to be even bigger.  

The students worked tremendously hard during rehearsals for what culminated in a fantastic display of talent for audiences from around the world. 

The “Dance the Dream” event provides the students with a chance to come together and showcase their talents overseas, whilst building on their creativity and Courage for Life skills that will benefit them both on and off the stage. 

Stagecoach Torquay and Newton Abbot Principal Elizabeth Price Holden said: “We are beyond excited to be able to offer this amazing opportunity to our students. They worked so hard and we were delighted to see them perform at Disneyland Paris.”
