We’re throwing it back to our click track recording day as we prepared for our 2026 Summer Show! 🎧✨

Such an exciting day for our pupils, heading into the studio to record their vocals ahead of the big day!

Our click tracks allow our pupils to sing their own songs, with their recorded vocals then layered and built into the tracks to enhance and strengthen the overall sound on stage… while still keeping our pupils’ voices at the heart of the performance🎤

It’s another little glimpse at just how much goes on behind the scenes to bring our Summer Show to life!

And we think they sounded amazing! ✨

Clearing out that week 4 camera roll 📸

Here’s some more pics for the photo album.

And just like that… our biggest summer yet has come to an end! ☀️✨

Over the past four weeks, more than 350 children have walked through the doors at RTAD for our Summer Holiday Camps, Musical Theatre Courses and Intensives… and what a summer it has been!

From High School Musical, Camp Rock, Paddington and Cats for our younger performers, to Newsies, Legally Blonde, Hamilton, SIX, Back to the Future and our HUGE Battle of the Bands Grand Finale… we really have covered it all! 🎭🎤

Our Summer Intensives have also given our aspiring performers the chance to train in small groups with incredible West End professionals, including Barnaby Thompson, currently performing in Disney’s The Lion King, and Katie Warsop, whose credits include Cats, We Will Rock You, Elf and A Chorus Line⭐️

But our favourite part? Hearing how much your children have loved it too. ❤️

💬 “We actually changed our flights so our child could be back in time for Friday’s showing of work. There was no way they wanted to miss performing!”

💬 “Thank you for giving my child the confidence to be themselves. They haven’t stopped talking about camp all week.”

💬 “Every holiday my child comes home more confident, already asking when they can come back.”

If your child joined us this summer, please let us know what they thought in the comments or send us a message. 💌

🍂🎄 WHAT’S NEXT?

Bookings are now OPEN for our October Half Term and Christmas Holiday Camps & Musical Theatre Courses!

Places are allocated on a first-come, first-served basis, so we recommend booking early.
