A LITTLE NOTE ABOUT Take 2 Theatre Company

We just wanted to clarify that Take 2 Theatre Company is completely separate from Take 2 Performing Arts Academy (our Theatre School).

⭐ Take 2 Performing Arts Academy is our weekly Theatre School and performing arts classes.

🎬 Take 2 Theatre Company is our separate production company, bringing together performers for full-scale shows and productions such as Nativity! The Musical, Bag Girls, Ladies Day etc etc

The Theatre Company also has its own separate page, and this is where we’ll be sharing cast announcements, rehearsal information, production updates, behind-the-scenes news and everything relating to our Theatre Company shows.

If you or your child are involved in Nativity! or would like to keep up to date with future Take 2 Theatre Company productions, please make sure you FOLLOW our Theatre Company page.

We’ve got lots of exciting things coming up and can’t wait to share them with you! 🎭✨

Please follow, like and share the Take 2 Theatre Company page so you don’t miss any updates! ❤️
