Rising Stars is a theatre group open to young people aged 13-25. The group perform a wide range of shows from musicals, pantomimes and variety performances. Some of their previous shows include: ‘Oliver!’, ‘Little Shop of Horrors’, ‘Beauty and the Beast’, 'Addams Family', ‘Cinderella’, ‘Aladdin’ and ‘Grease’. 

All the shows are self-funded through fundraising events such as Quiz Nights and Race Nights allowing the performers to experience the highest quality theatre experience possible.

Alex Downer directs the shows accompanied by Kate Downer’s choreography. Through years of belonging to local theatre groups, they aim to provide more than just a performing arts group but a wider experience in the community. The group is tight-knit and friendly advocating the team effort that must go into performing.
