BGGS Triumphs with Bold, Expressive and Incredibly Entertaining Dance Show

Bradford Girls’ Grammar School wowed audiences over three nights with ‘Expressions’ a spectacular dance show involving excellent choreography, enhanced by imaginatively designed costumes, professional lighting and special effects. 

The theme was self-expression and abstract art, poetry and literature were brought together to create a show that everyone would be talking about.  Street dance, flash mobs, and even a little cabaret kept the audiences enthralled and comedy sketches in between routines made the audience howl with laughter.
