Hello people!!! Just came back from a very long day after performing at the Prince of Wales with the Mamma mia masterclass! It was great fun and I recommend it to everyone! (Nia gave us orders to tell our friends so I am!) We had members of the cast watching us which was really nice since it meant they got up extra early to come see us! It's good Nia didn't tell us until after we'd performed though! Here are some pics I hope the link works! kcl.facebook.com/album.php?aid=2068576&l=a20ba&id=60506109

So tell us EVERYTHING about the masterclass. I'd love to do one but am so unco-ordinated it's scary

Erm, are you split into groups ie singers/dancers or does everybody do everything? And who teaches what? Is it all on stage or in rehearsal rooms? Oh, and was Tim teaching? What's he like? I'm happy for you to ramble about him

We are split into 3 groups for the singing and there are equal numbers of each group in the dancing groups of which there are two, Bjorn and Benny (original). While one group is performing onstage the other group is in the booths singing and then they swap. Nia, Suzy and Marc Leslie taught us but usually it's Tim instead of Marc but he was working on the film! We rehearse in a rehearsal room most of the time and have a morning at the theatre setting it. There are solo parts which are Sophie, Donna and Sam.

I think Nia mentioned casting so am guessing he's looking for "ensemble" members

He is assistant choreographer and appears in it as well. There are 70 dancers in the film! The masterclass is the best 3 and a half days of my year, maybe even my life, and I have done it twice. I WILL be back next year, hopefully...
