JOSEPH & THE AMAZING TECHNICOLOR DREAMCOAT - JUNE 2018
"such talented young performers who literally took my breath away with their amazing stagecraft – I am so pleased that local theatre is safe in their hands – and for some, a glittering professional career must beckon."
"From curtain up to the spectacular finale, this was a show replete with talent, movement and entertainment, a gourmet feast fully appreciated by an enthralled audience".
"There were some great performances from the brothers – they worked well together and they sang their way through with gusto and some lovely harmonies. The dancing ensemble were excellent and all the girls danced well. It was also nice to see every single face smiling – the energy and warmth from the female ensemble came over the footlights and into the auditorium"
THE PHANTOM OF THE OPERA - JUNE 2019
"Once again, Diva Productions have produced a piece of quite remarkable theatre."
"Every element of the show was so impressive - props, costumes, set, pyros, choreography, music and of course the stunning performances by your young and very talented cast."
"An amazing theatrical experience. The whole audience rose to its feet at the finale, completely blown away by the evening."

HAIRSPRAY - JUNE 2020
Regrettably, due to the Coronavirus Pandemic, we had to abandon our production of Hairspray scheduled for June 2020 at The Carriageworks, Leeds.
We are delighted to be able to share two videos that feature two of our leading ladies. Catriona Cochrane who would have played the role of Tracy Turnblad sings Good Morning Baltimore and Antonia Opare, who would have played Motormouth Maybelle, sings I Know Where I've Been.

With the news of the riots and civil unrest across America in the Summer of 2020, the message at the heart of Hairspray seems ever more relevant and important today. We look forward to a time in the future when we can present this musical to an audience, but more importantly to a time when this musical can be performed in a world where "integration" and equality for all is widely accepted.
