"This production of Annie isn’t just a nod to Phoenix’s past. It’s a reminder of what spaces like the Arts Centre allow young performers to do, and why they’re worth protecting."

What a wonderful week we had at @aberdeenartscentre.bsky.social last week and thank you to our wonderful audiences!

Several of the Phoenix family - young, not-so-young and VERY young - were out in force at the launch of the campaign to #saveaberdeenartscentre this weekend. @aberdeenartscentre.bsky.social is our home away from home and a vital community hub the North East can’t afford to lose.

Leapin’ lizards! With the Easter holidays coming to an end, we'll be diving right back into Annie rehearsals and will be bringing one of our best-loved musicals to the stage in no time!

Have you got your tickets yet? What are you waiting for?

Allow us to introduce you to the dream team of Penny and Mickey, already thick as thieves and ready to bring smiles to the faces of the audience this June!

First rehearsal photo! The orphans and Miss Hannigan from Phoenix Youth’s Annie got started with their first rehearsal last night - we can’t wait to see how they get on over the next few months!

Annie will run at @aberdeenartscentre.bsky.social in June 2025!

Some of our Phoenix Theatre cast met on Monday for our newly-launched monthly catchup and singing session. It was lovely to see their smiling faces outside of our normal show season! We were also able to celebrate the great amount we raised for Friends of Anchor through our show Louder Than Words!

We are so incredibly proud of our cast and crew for making ‘Louder Than Words’ such an incredible success. Not only putting on a brilliant show, full of excellent performances, but for raising such a huge amount for Friends of Anchor in Liz’s memory.

Great to see so many of our pupils trying out our dance class this week, as Katie put them through their paces with ‘I Hope I Get It’ from A Chorus Line. We think they got it!

Phoenix Youth’s dance class runs on Saturdays at 1:15pm.
February 17, 2025 at 9:41 AM
With Annie on the horizon and rehearsals starting soon, this week at Phoenix Youth we were exploring some of the characters our cast may be playing in the show.

We look forward to presenting Annie at the Aberdeen Arts Centre this June!

Wishing everyone a very Merry Christmas from the team at Phoenix Theatre & Phoenix Youth Theatre! Thank you for all your support, love and hard work over the past year. We hope you all have a wonderful festive period and are looking forward to lighting up the stage together again next year!

Emotions were high as we returned to the stage last week, but rehearsals over the last few months were an absolute fun-filled joy.

We have produced a video so everyone can take a look behind the scenes and see how another spectacular Phoenix show came together!

We can’t wait to show you what the Phoenix Family has been working on - with tickets still available for Wednesday’s opening night, make sure you don’t miss this wonderful production!

“This is as much Liz’s show as it is anyone else in the company so we’re taking a lot of comfort in that.”

Louder Than Words runs at the Aberdeen Arts Centre 20-23 November, with all the proceeds going to the incredible Friends of ANCHOR.
