First to the stage was a musical theatre piece to Mamma Mia, followed by a Jazz piece to New York, New York and to finish was a lyrical number to a track called Domino.
However this was not the crew’s first Christmas event at such a large venue – last year the dancers had the opportunity to show of their talent at Her Majesty’s Theatre in London’s West End.
SJPA is also proud to be the current National Champions after winning first place at Sky Ones ‘Teenstar’ National Competition with a Celebrity Judging Panel.
