Stage school celebrates its 75th year in style
The Gainsborough Stage School’s annual show promises to have audiences clapping and singing along with songs old and new.
And this year’s performance will be particularly special as it also marks the 75th anniversary of the school.
Principal Shirley Wilson – one of Francis Laidler’s sunbeams at the Grand Theatre Leeds – will be in the audience as she is recovering from reconstructive knee surgery.

“We have also appeared on TV in Children in Need and have tap danced with the late Norman Wisdom and the stars of Coronation Street.”
