SUMMER IS COMING!

HAVE YOUR KIDS GOT TALENT?

It's that time of year again, summer is only around the corner and we have the perfect activity to keep your children entertained and excited with three whole days of activities, fun and a live performance!

After last years success of our 'Kids Got Talent' 3 day workshop we have decided to run the same summer school activity this year to give even more children a chance to take part in this amazing opportunity. 

Manic Stage Productions we will be hosting 'Kids Got Talent' from Wednesday 5th - Friday 7th August 2015.

The idea of 'Kids Got Talent' is to encourage all the children to bring along their own talent to the Portsmouth's Guildhall and to practise and perfect it over the three days with the added assistance of our talented team. The aim is to make their individual skill show time ready for the on stage performance on the final day!

The children will also learn a whole host of new skills throughout the workshop days including dancing, singing, acting, arts and crafts, and lots lots more. 

The children will make new friends and be working in groups with new people to expand their repertoire of skills as the days pass.

One of the main attractions of this workshop event is the amazing opportunity to perform on the actual stage. We are lucky enough that the Friday performance showcase will be on the Guildhall stage, with lighting, sound and costumes! The children will be putting on a "proper" show of which family and friends are invited to come and see on the final afternoon. 

With the chance for the children to showcase each of their own talents and group numbers as a whole cast, the jam packed show will feature all types of entertainment for the parents viewing pleasure. 

After last years brilliant workshop we can not wait to see this years turn out..... so start practising those talents and book your places now so not to miss out this summer!! 

The cost of the three day workshop is £75 per child.
Each day will run from 10am-3pm at PortsmouthGuildhall

Dates are Wednesday 5th - Friday 7th August 2015.

Book your places now through Paypal on our event page via our website www.manicsp.co.uk 

We look forward to seeing you all in the summer!

Another Fun Filled Half Term

READ WHAT MANIC GOT UP TO 

THIS HALF TERM! 

This February Manic again took over the Harlequin room at the Portsmouth Guildhall to run our ever successful children's half term dance days and workshops. 

Last week a whole host of children arrived ready to dance, sing, play games and create their very own arts and crafts with lots of new friends at 2 of our fun packed dance days.

Monday we hosted 'We Love Boybands'

With a room full of fans the children learnt and performed routines to their favourite chart topping heart throbs including One Direction, The Vamps, 5 Seconds Of Summer, JLS and many many more. 

We made some very colourful concert posters with brilliant drawings of our favourite artists to show our family friends when they arrived at the end for "showtime".

Along with beautiful singing and catwalks the performance was jam packed with all of the exciting activities that we had practised and perfected through out the day.

Our 1D cardboard cut outs proved a popular posing point for a quick photo opportunity with our fave boy band member, creating the perfect little keepsake picture and memory of the day. These weren't just for the children, some of the parents jumped in for a quick photo too ... 
Even Matt and Emma couldn't resist a quick snap with the famous faces!

Tuesday was a different theme altogether and with a group of new children to entertain we hosted 
'Magical Fairytale, Once Upon A Time'

This group of beautiful princesses learnt new magical moves ready to be added to our "showtime" dances at the end of the day. 

The children shared with us their favourite fairytales and wow what a variety we had to choose from! 

We encouraged the children to have a go at their own creative choreography, which featured in our catwalk finally and there individual spotlight moment. 
Showtime also showcased two different dance routines, sensational singing and amazing arts and crafts.

We were so busy on Tuesday, learning two routines and also squeezing in two different types of crafts. 

Our Fairytale posters had pictures of our fairytale lands, magical spells, prince and princess's and all sorts of beautiful decorations. 

Secondly we made beautiful magic wands to use as props during our catwalk at showtime. They shined and sparkled just as the children did over both days. 

With both groups making a whole bunch of new friends and all the children looking forward to the next school holiday. We are already planning more exciting events and themes for your little ones to enjoy this Easter

Look out on our facebook page 'Manic Stage Productions' and our website www.manicsp.co.uk for the first release of our Easter Holidays, May Half Term and Summer School activities. Manic Stage Productions cannot wait to see you all again for more holiday fun!!

POP PARTY VIDEO!!

POP PARTY VIDEO!!! 

We have a new exciting project that we are launching. 

Our new children's dance parties will be able to offer an added extra of a 'POP VIDEO PARTY' option. 

This will involve a videographer coming to the party and shooting throughout from all different angles. All of the party games, cake, singing, dancing, and show performance will all be filmed and then you will have a dvd produced, edited and cut at the end which will be about 20 mins long and feature all aspects of the party. 

On Wednesday 20th August at Portsmouth Guildhall we are going to be filming a promotional video for this to launch the new optional extra and are looking for a group of children that would like to be involved. If your child is between 6-10yrs and has some dance experience and can wear a nice bright outfit and is happy to perform in front of the cameras then we would love to have them on board. 

Obviously the taking part in this would mean you agree to the consent for us to use your child in the filming and promotion of the video. Limited places available so get in touch!! 

If your children are interested then please let us know asap.

Thank You!

We are excited to announce that on Sunday evening we were filmed for Children in Need to be aired on the BBC this Friday!

Nicole & Matt the creative directors of Manic Stage Productions choreographed and produced a fabulous fun Circus themed medley perfect for the Children in Need fund raising show at The Kings Theatre, Southsea.

Our professional entertainment team The SHOW Girlz opened the show with this high energy, visually pleasing new piece and really got the event of to a fantastic start!

8 of our gorgeous girls took to the stage as circus characters including a lion tamer, a ballerina and of course a couple of clowns. The children in the audience loved how colourful the team looked and were treated to a 10 minute mixed medley of song and dance.

We don't want to give to much away but just so you know what you are looking for through Friday nights live show, here is a video of just one small section - ENJOY :-)
