Kid's Got Talent will involve all sorts of fun, from bringing your own talent, whether that be singing, dancing, telling jokes, impressions or some other kind of impressive skill to working with our talented team to learn some new talents and perform these to the crowd on the final day. Every child will feature in "Show Time" and some lucky children may even receive the "Golden Buzzer" award and perform in the spotlight all on their own! As well as perfecting our performance pieces the children will take part will in arts and crafts, creating costume accessories, playing theatrical and fun filled games and much much more throughout the three days. 

The most exciting part about this summer club is that the final performance for family and friends on the third day will be performed on the actual Guildhall STAGE!!

This stage has been home to many of the UK's top acts and to be able to perform on there is a great honour and achievement for your children which I am sure they will love!

Secondly we will be hosting another 'Frozen' day at The Portsmouth Guildhall. After the amazing success of our past half term week we can't wait to "Let It Go" again!.
