The youngsters will then have the opportunity to perform their routine ‘Passers By’ on the Salford stage.

The choreography, created by Sammy Allen with the academy, explores all the people you come face to face with in everyday life and the reactions and interactions that occur.

Sammy said: “It is a fantastic opportunity for them to perform with other youth companies from across the region in such a recognised venue.”
