2012 Summer Workshop

Through the Stage Door is now looking at the New Year and thinking about workshops. It’s been a little hectic because Peter and Maddy have been involved almost full time in shows. Maddy is now in Nutcracker and Peter is in Sweeney Todd.

Maddy and Peter are planning one of their hugely popular Summer Schools in August and will be announcing the schedule as soon as Sweeney Todd has opened at the Adelphi Theatre on 20th March.

Class this week

BAD GUYS AND

(from Bugsy Malone)

JUST ONE PERSON

(from the musical Snoopy)

Here are the lyrics you will need

Snoopy:
If just one person believes in you. Deep enough, and strong enough, believes in you.
hard enough,and long enough before you knew it,
someone else would think, if he can do it, I can do it. Making it..

Snoopy and Patty:
Two! Two whole people who believe in you. And if two whole people believe in you.
Deep enough, and strong enough believe in you. Hard enough, and long
enough there’s bound to be some other person who believes in making it a threesome.
Making it…

Sally joins:
Three….people you can say, believe in me. And if three whole people, why not…

Linus joins:
Four. And if four whole people, why not…

Lucy joins:
More, and…

Charlie Brown joins:
More, and more. And when all those people believe in you,
deep enough and strong enough believe in you,
hard enough and long enough it stands to reason you,
yourself will start to see what everybody sees in you.
And maybe even you, can believe in you, too.

No class this week

There will be no class this week as Peter is away in New York celebrating Maddy’s birthday.

Don’t forget your stories and learn the words for Bad Guys for the next class on 22nd October.
