Dancers from Crossgates-based Centre Stage Performing Arts enjoyed a “once-in-a-lifetime” opportunity after performing at Disneyland Paris earlier this year.

The talented group took to the Videopolis main stage and also wowed crowds in the park’s famous parade, entertaining an audience of around 15,000 people in March.

Led by instructor Miss Charley, the Disney team lit up the parade route, with the school’s Under 10s not only joining the magic but leading a parade of their own.

Staff at Centre Stage Performing Arts said they were “incredibly proud” of all the dancers, describing it as a “performance of a lifetime” and an experience they will never forget.

The trip was made possible thanks to generous backing from the local community, including funding support from Dunfermline Carnegie Trust, the community council and other supporters.

A spokesperson for the school said on their Facebook page: “This has truly been a dream come true for our dancers. Performing at Disneyland Paris is something they will remember for the rest of their lives.

“We are so grateful to our dance families, friends, supporters and local organisations who helped make this happen. It’s never goodbye – only see you real soon.”
