Classes are divided into Cast A & B, this allows us to keep the shows at a manageable length, ensure we have enough shows for all families to buy their desired amount of tickets and allows younger not to have to perform in both weekends of shows.
Some classes (generally Excel Program or Inter / Advanced classes are double cast, meaning they will
perform inall Cast A & Cast B shows.
