tour was a massive success

The tour was a massive success. In particular the dance workshop was amazing. Although we enjoyed it last year this year’s was outstanding. The artiste who delivered the session was brilliant, thoroughly prepared and planned the session at just the right level for our students. They couldn’t believe they were actually going to see her in the show that evening.
