Anglia Region Theatre School Takes Aim at Disneyland Paris 2026!

The excitement at the Anglia Region Theatre School has been impossible to miss these past few weeks. With almost 60 dedicated young performers in rehearsals and three incredible teams preparing a brand-new audition video, the journey toward Disneyland Paris 2026 is officially underway!

For those who know ARTS, you’ll know that our school thrives on ambitious challenges—and this one may be our biggest yet. Creating an audition piece worthy of one of the largest stages in Disneyland Paris is no small task. But with our history of successful Disney performances and the exceptional work ethic of our students, we are stepping forward with confidence, passion, and plenty of sparkle.

🌟 A Legacy of Excellence

Our performers have taken to Disney stages many times over the years, each time raising the bar higher. Families and friends who have joined previous trips know just how magical the experience is—from the moment the coach pulls away to the final bow under Disney lights. These events have become treasured milestones for our students, strengthening their teamwork, artistry, and love for performing.

If you’d like a glimpse of what makes a Disney performance truly unforgettable, take a look back through our past blog posts. The smiles say it all.

💃 Choreography Led by the Wonderful Lisa

This year’s audition choreography has been shaped by Lisa, one of ARTS’ most experienced and imaginative teachers. Her vision is bold, challenging, and packed with high-energy sequences designed to showcase our children at their absolute best.

Rehearsals have been intense and joyful in equal measure. From tiny steps perfected by our youngest dancers to ambitious formations mastered by our older groups, the commitment shown by every performer has been nothing short of inspiring.

🎥 Audition Filming Day — Sun 31st November 2025

What a day! Our Sunday filming session was full of excitement, nerves, and proud moments. The children arrived with polished costumes, sky-high enthusiasm, and months of hard work ready to shine on camera. The energy in the room was electric as each team poured their hearts into the final take.

We’re thrilled to share a photo gallery capturing the spirit of the day—every leap, smile, sparkle, and triumphant group hug. (See below!)

✨ Looking Ahead to 2026

If our application is successful, three teams of our ARTS performers will travel to Disneyland Paris in 2026 to represent our school on an iconic stage. With nearly 60 children taking part, it promises to be one of the most memorable trips in our school’s history.

Regardless of the outcome, this audition project has already reminded us what makes ARTS so special:

• Ambition,

• Professionalism,

• Community, and

• A shared belief that children can achieve extraordinary things.

To our performers—you have done us proud. To our families—thank you for your unwavering support. And to our incredible teachers—thank you for continuing to uphold the exceptionally high standards that define ARTS.

Here’s to dreams, dedication, and the magic of Disney. 🌟
