Bling Fling 2010

Phoenix Theatre dancers perform a synchronized routine in pink and silver at the 2010 Bling Fling charity event in Aberdeen.

Phoenix Theatre were honoured to again be asked to help out at this year's Bling Fling walk at Aberdeen's Duthie Park.

The event was aimed at raising money for local cancer charities and our performers were delighted to help out in any way they could. Whether it was selling raffle tickets or lending a helping hand to clean up, our cast members were there with smiles on their faces.

Following the walk, a number of our corporate dancers wowed the crowd with their latest 'Chicago'-themed cabaret. All-in-all, the day was full of Razzle Dazzle.

A girls night in at John Lewis

A number of Phoenix Theatre's corporate performers must have thought it was their lucky day when they were asked to spend an evening relaxing in their pyjamas in the shop window of Aberdeen's John Lewis!

Not only did they get a calm time chatting on the sofa and reading magazines, they were also treated to makeovers, pizza and had a Nintendo Wii to play with. Sometimes life can be very tough for our dancers!

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'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.
