Academy of Dance

Massive congratulations to former pupil Larissa on her professional panto role!! Have the best time!

✨️ Panto Casting Announcement ✨️

We are incredibly excited to announce that Larissa Wallington will be playing to role of Aurora in this years Christmas Pantomime! 🧑‍🎄

Larissa is a dance and singing teacher with a huge passion for musical theatre. She began training in dance and musical theatre with Academy of Dance at just five years old and spent 8 years performing in the chorus of pantomimes throughout her childhood, where her love of the stage first began.

Since then, Larissa has gone on to perform in a variety of productions, building a wealth of experience and a wonderful collection of favourite roles along the way. Her highlights include Dorothy in The Wizard of Oz, Becca in Everybody's Talking About Jamie, Esther Morstan-Eyre in Whodunnit!? and most recently, Scaramouche in We Will Rock You. Her portrayal of Dorothy in Chesterfield Operatic Society's The Wizard of Oz earned her a Best Performer NODA Award. An achievement she is incredibly proud of.

Away from the stage, Larissa works as a part-time dance and singing teacher. She loves inspiring the next generation of performers by sharing her passion for dance, singing and musical theatre.

Larissa is beyond excited to be making her debut at the Academy Theatre and is exciting to be starring in this years pantomime! ✨
