Great Shows Coming Soon!

20th March 2014Ms K FARQUHAR

I would like to draw your attention to two wonderful evenings of entertainment, for which tickets are now available. All staff are entitled to a free ticket so if you would like one please email me and I will sort you out a complimentary one through Positickets. If you are buying tickets for other people you can do this yourself if you go onto the Positicket website- however if you want a complimentary one for yourself and also tickets for friends/family and you all want to sit together I am afraid that you will have to come and see me with the money as you won’t have access to the complimentary ticket option yourself. I hope this makes sense! I’m sure they will both be wonderful evenings and tickets are already selling quickly!
Tickets are priced £8 for Adults and £4 for Students for both shows.

Following the success of last years ‘Christmas Cabaret Night’, the Borlase Jazz scene is turning the Theatre into the ‘Borlase Bluenote Club’ to celebrate 75 years of the famous American Jazz Recording label ‘Bluenote Records’. This exciting event is being organised by Aaron Bhalla in Year 13 and will feature the Borlase Jazz band plus guests.
