Preston’s College Musical Theatre Show wows audiences

Preston’s College Musical Theatre students are celebrating the success of their end of year show, the hit musical, The Hunchback of Notre Dame, based on the Victor Hugo novel with songs from the Disney film.

With the stage set and the sun shining the MTTA students took their places and delivered an unforgettable show which wowed audiences and sent them to share their thoughts on social media.

Audience members described the show as ‘a wonderful production in a glorious setting’ and ‘a fantastic show.’

From the renovation works completed by our Estates and School of Construction to the Technicians and tutors I would like to say a huge thank you and congratulations on a job well done.”
