Quotes

ALICE 2011

.Theatreinwales, 05 May 2011 – Tweedledum and Tweedledee, danced spiritedly by Bethany Kingsley-Garner and Brenda Lee Grech.

CINDERELLA 2010/2011

.Culturenorthernireland.org, 02 February 2011 - The first act presents us with the varied cast, particularly the wicked stepsisters, performed by Martina Forioso and Brenda Lee Grech. Prokofiev wrote the stepsisters as manic and strange, crazy and cunning. The dancers capture their personalities perfectly.

THE SLEEPING BEAUTY 2008/2009

.Theatreinwales, 24 January 2009 - Impressive too were the Lilac Fairy from Luciana Ravizzi and her sweet little companions Beauty (Kara McLaughlin), Grace (Joanne Bungay), Angelic Temperament (Brenda Lee Grech), Song (Martina Forioso) and Wisdom (Lorena Fernandez Saez).
