National Lacrosse Championships 2025

Success at the National Lacrosse Championships We were thrilled to...

The opening night of Little Shop of Horrors is tomorrow and this weekend we met the pit band for the first time. The cast spent the weekend rehearsing with the musicians and we have to say, it's sounding amazing! Whether you are learning a musical instrument already or thinking about having lessons, our performances of Little Shop of Horrors are the perfect chance to see our very own peri music teachers (and one of our students!) in action. 

The cast and band can't wait to show you the results of all their hard work, so if you haven't got your ticket yet, secure your seat now at book when.com/birkenheadschool (we'll pop the link in our stories)

πŸ’« The finale was something special as the curtain closed on the final production. Our students have wowed audiences for the past two weeks with their immense talent, and we are incredibly proud in the school community to have such dedicated and talented students.

We celebrated the work of our amazing director Kirsten Pankhurst and Musical Director Philip Robinson, who have worked on ten productions together.

The best way to end this incredible era of shows was to have a medley of all the productions they had done together.
Little Shop of Horrors, Fiddler on the Roof, 
West Side Story, Les Miserables, Cabaret, Grease, Joseph and the Technicolour Dreamcoat, Chicago, Oliver and Little Shop of Horrors (2025).

Their legacy will live onβ€οΈβ€‹β€‹β€‹β€‹β€‹β€‹β€‹πŸŽΆπŸŽ­
