Alinta Christmas Pageant 2021

Showtime HMS Performances , , , , ,

In 2020 we took a break from performing in the Christmas pageant due to Covid-19 but this year we were back!

Saturday December 4th marked the occasion. The city of Perth was all lit up and families were lined up in the streets to watch the performances. A select few of our Showtime students participated and were dressed up in Christmas colours, a mix of sparkly green and red costumes. Dancing to Christmas carols down the streets of Perth is a great way to get in to the Christmas spirit and we love being a part of the Alinta Christmas Pageant each year.

We would like to congratulate our students on how well they danced and represented Showtime HMS.

State Dance Association Exams

Showtime HMS Uncategorized , , , ,

Last year Covid-19 lockdowns had a big impact on our exam classes. With the exception of grade 5 jazz, many of our students chose to hold off on taking their full exam. Instead they took a smaller performance exam and continued to work on their technique ready for this year.

Our jazz and ballet exam classes work on a range of technical exercises to improve their dancing. Each exercise is developed to help improve their dance skills, strength and flexibility. They must learn theory about the styles of dance they are doing, correct terminology and anatomy. Some of the exams include performing multiple different dances to show versatility.

In 2021 all of our exam students participated in their full exam. We are so pleased to announce everyone passed with many students receiving grades in the top 15%! For the remainder of the year they will work on preparing a routine for our end of year concert and then next year move up to the next grade.

Mid Year Concert 2021; Live Love Dance!

Showtime HMS Concerts, Performances ,

Students had been working hard all semester towards their mid year concert to have a spanner thrown in the works and a lockdown hit us 5 days prior to our scheduled concert date. We pushed on and continued our classes at home on Zoom as the lockdown was due to lift the morning of concert day. Sadly even though the lockdown was lifted the restrictions still meant we were not able to hold our concert on Sat 3rd July and were forced to reschedule.

Going in to school holidays this meant students had to keep practicing at home and weren’t able to have a final practice together before going on stage but you never would have picked it watching how well they performed. After 2 weeks break we were able to hit the stage on Sun 18th July at John Curtin Theatre. We are so proud of all the students who smashed it on stage after a 2 week break and some classes having to adapt their routines due to a few students being unable to make the rescheduled performance date. It really shows how committed and passionate our Showtime HMS students are.

Congratulations to the students who received achievement awards below:

Junior Concert Awards: Riyansh G, Ehmupoh H, Gabrielle C, Ruben L, Cheliese R, Grace M, Fiona B, Paige M, Hollie B, Ruby P, Bayleigh B & Mia H.

Senior Concert Awards: Lily M, Cassandra D, Ella-blu S, Arianna D, Dylan R, Dakoda D, Jocelyn D, Melisha M, Bernice B, Isabelle P, Tahlia C, Ashleigh H, Elliana A, Ava H, Hayley D & Sophie S.

Also to our “Performer of the night” awards which went to Grace in the junior concert and Tylah in the senior concert.
