Our Pavilion



Not only do we use the Brambles Road Pavilion for storing our bigger stage pieces we also use it is as part of our incredible backstage accommodation complex.
Now it has become the Star Struck Pavilion at The Revamped Newcastle Show.
This year was a tester. It went unnoticed in the program or map. It was not found on any entertainment schedule. It was just there. We did however manage to promote the show throughout the 4 days with lots of bargains and help from a magic band of SS performers...thanks all. Love your work....thought we should show some action from the experience.

Now we want to do a bigger show and advertise it and all.

Interview

Just the other day I had 3 brilliant journalists come to the office to interview me on behalf of Struck 2008. The questions were awesome and incisive and probing and ...well ...real newspaperStar inquiry stuff. They really knew their background too. I discovered not only were they journos of some note but accomplished dancers with years of SS experience. Can't wait to see the article in the Tenambit School newspaper.
Love your work girls....see you at rehearsals.....

The Newcastle Show

We are really looking forward to the show this year as Star Struck will have its own little input in the Brambles Road Pavilion which for the duration will be known as the Star Struck pavilion....cool hey. We'll have lots of pics from the 15 years we've been going. Vision running of past shows and backstage stuff as well. Every so often we'll pick up on performers past and present an get them to do a number or 2 for the audience. There'll be our bargain basement show special sale of past T Shirts and products. There'll be special show deals. and there'll be plenty of Struckies there to chat about Star Struck 2008 Changes.
We'll also have a sign on section to recognise past performers ...so if you were in Star Struck at anytime and can remember the year and item come along and join our Strucky Performers Book.
