GUEST TEACHER NEWS | Welcome …. Barbara King & Graeme Henderson

We have a fantastically experienced and diverse team here at Hamilton Theatre Arts working with both our Dance & Musical Theatre students as well as a host of highly experienced visiting artists and teachers.

Today our students are taking part in a special tap workshop with two legends from 42nd Street, Barbara King & Graeme Henderson.

Barbara trained at Arts Ed in London and when she was just 20 years old, was thrust into the limelight with a real life mirroring of the 42nd Street plot as she stepped in cover the role of Peggy Sawyer with just minutes to spare before curtain up at London’s Drury Lane Theatre… and the rest is history!

Graeme is a renowned dancer, choreographer, teacher and actor of many years experience having trained in Liverpool, London and New York and has appeared in no less than five professional productions of the legendary tap musical 42nd Street!

A huge Hamilton Theatre Arts welcome to Barbara & Graeme …. We are so honoured to have you with us today!

GUEST TEACHER NEWS | Welcome …. Simon Barnum

We have a fantastically experienced and diverse team here at Hamilton Theatre Arts working with both our Dance & Musical Theatre students.

We are delighted to welcome top choreographer and creative Simon Barnum to Hamilton Theatre Arts today. Simon is working with all our students today taking class and watching our Act One run of our forthcoming show Legally Blonde.

Simon Barnum, a London-based choreographer with over two decades of experience, is a prime example of progressive career evolution in the performing arts. Beginning his journey as a dancer, Simon steadily ascended through various professional roles—from dance captain to assistant choreographer, and eventually to choreographer, creative director, and associate director. He has left his artistic imprint on a range of high-profile shows that are currently dazzling audiences worldwide.

By the age of 16, Simon had already been part of four West End musicals. Self-taught by 19, his first professional gig was as a backing dancer for Atomic Kitten. This opportunity served as a springboard for Simon, launching him into collaborations with notable artists like the Sugababes, Pussycat Dolls, and Girls Aloud. With the latter, he nurtured a six-year professional relationship, eventually taking on the roles of dance captain and assistant choreographer for their esteemed 'Out of Control' UK arena tour.

Simon’s influence extends well beyond the British Isles. He took on the role of creative director for Georgia's X Factor and its localized version of 'Georgia's Got Talent.' Currently, he holds the position of senior choreographer with Underwraps Event Choreography, contributing to shows that have been a staple at Dubai’s Global Village for over a decade. From Mediterranean cruise liners to international television programs, Simon Barnum's choreographic mastery has a global footprint, demonstrating the versatile scope of his talents in dance and storytelling.

Welcome to Hamilton Theatre Arts Simon…. We hope you enjoy your day with us!
