Phoenix Youth Theatre were delighted to join up with Northsound Radio and other partners for this year's Cash for Kids Santa Appeal.
Some of our youngest pupils were on hand to entertain guests and the public as a Christmas choir, while a few of our older stars kept the day in order as Santa's helpers!
Phoenix Theatre and Phoenix Youth Theatre were proud to be involved in the 'Bling Fling Christmas Thing', a ladies night of entertainment, stalls and fashion shows at the Hilton Treetops Hotel.
Money from the event will be shared between Prof Heys' breast cancer research at Aberdeen Royal Infirmary, Archway and Children's Cancer Support at Royal Aberdeen Children's Hospital.
Phoenix Theatre were proud to present their 'Hairspray' cabaret at the Union Square launch weekend in Aberdeen.
Shoppers flocked to the North-East's newest retail hub and our performers were delighted provided that little something extra to the proceedings.
Phoenix Theatre's own Jennie Milne was one of 2,400 people chosen to take part in Antony Gormley's 'One & Other' Project, where a different person stands on the Forth Plinth in Trafalgar Square every hour, 24 hours a day, for 100 days. She was one of 207 participants from Scotland, who were chosen from almost 35,000 applicants.
Participants could do anything with their hour and Jennie chose to spend her time dressed as a 50s housewife, throwing handmade felt cupcakes into the crowd. She raised money for Grampian Women's Aid and managed to raise £750 for the charity, which helped to refurbish a family room at a refuge.
Phoenix Theatre and Granite City Brass celebrated the life of North-East drummer Colin Reid, with an evening of entertainment at St Mary's Church, Aberdeen.
Colin played for both groups before his recent sudden death and he will be greatly missed. Proceeds from the concert went to Chest, Heart and Stroke Scotland.
Phoenix Youth Theatre is delighted to confirm that some of our young performers will be joining forces with Ellen Kent Opera and Ballet International for their upcoming tours of Aida and Turnadot.
Ellen Kent has been working with young performers across the UK for 15 years, in an attempt to boost their stage careers, and has partnered with Phoenix Theatre since 2007.
Aberdeen's annual Student Show is keeping it in the family this year, as Phoenix Theatre's Jonnie Milne prepares to witness the fruits of his labours as Administrator of the charity event. His eldest sister, Jennie, was part of the cast 10 years ago, while their mum Liz Milne debuted as Assistant Director 20 years ago.
Jonnie's not got the only family connection this year, as brother and sister Laura Jarret and Craig Pike make up the Musical team, while Choreographer Shona King is the sister of Script Editor Stuart.
Wrapped your head around all of that? The 88th Student Show runs at His Majesty's Theatre from April 21-25, with all the proceeds going to North-East charities.
One of our founders and directors, Liz Milne, was thrilled to be chosen to be a judge for this year's Rock Challenge at the AECC.
Rock Challenge is a nationwide unique and exciting opportunity for schools to take part in a dance, drama and design spectacular where young people are the stars. The judges are drawn from the entertainment, education and performing arts industries.
Liz was impressed by the standard of work and congratulates all the teams that took part in this year's event.
