A few weeks ago, our talented Year 12 Stage students played a vital role behind the scenes of BOA Creative, Digital & Performing Arts Academy's production of Jekyll & Hyde at The Old Rep 🎭

From costume, hair and make-up to lighting, sound, stage management and set design, our students were at the heart of every performance, putting their technical skills into practice in a professional theatre environment.

These industry-style collaborations are what BOA Stage and Screen is all about—giving our learners the opportunity to gain real-world experience while helping bring incredible productions to life.

A huge well done to everyone involved! 👏

We're taking one more look back at our Year 12 Hair & Make-Up bald cap masterclass before the summer break! ✨

These behind-the-scenes photos capture our students putting their skills into practice as they applied professional vinyl bald caps using industry-standard methods and materials. From perfecting seamless edges to colour matching realistic flesh tones, every detail helped bring their work to life 💄🧑‍🦲🎨

Some students even went beyond the brief, transforming their bald caps into unique characters worthy of the big screen 🎭

Hands-on workshops like these give our students the opportunity to develop the practical skills, creativity and confidence needed for careers in TV, film and live production 🎥

Which transformation is your favourite? 👀👇

Lights, camera… action! 🎥✨

They'll be joining a star-studded cast featuring Harry Gilby, Jessica Barden, Ben Hardy, Joanna Scanlan and more.
