Divas Show

The Curious Academy Of Talent are bringing their children to the stage for the Divas Show at Bishop Grosseteste University on Sunday 22 November. It's a cabaret show, so the whole thing is built around the kids taking the lead rather than appearing as a supporting act. The title gives you the best idea of what to expect: a night of big voices and bold performances from the Academy's younger students.

Bishop Grosseteste is up in uphill Lincoln on Longdales Road, and it's a campus venue that does a fair bit more than just student events. It runs a Family Film Club on Saturdays with tickets at £2.50, and it beams in opera and theatre by satellite, having hosted productions like Blood Brothers, Bugsy Malone and The Lion King. The Lincoln Film Society also uses the university as its base, so it's a spot that's used to a steady stream of film and performance.

The Divas Show fits right into that mix. It's a cabaret, so it's less of a formal recital and more of a variety night, with the children of The Curious Academy Of Talent taking centre stage. If you've got a soft spot for seeing kids get stuck into performing, this is exactly that kind of evening.

It starts at 7pm on Sunday 22 November, and tickets are from £25. The venue is Bishop Grosseteste University, Longdales Road, Newport, LN1 3DY, up in the uphill part of the city.
