Charlotte Scott, who has starred in shows such as Wicked, dropped by The Garage to speak with children from slanteddance and teach them a routine from Matilda.

The performance group, made up of students aged four to 14 years old, trains in a mix of styles, including Jazz, Street and Contemporary.

Bryony Moore, co-director of slanteddance, said: 'Our pupils amaze us - they come from all over Norfolk each week with the kindest attitudes.

'Having guests like Charlotte visit our school is not necessarily about learning West End routines, it's more about opening up their world to see what they can achieve and how to get there.'

Charlotte Scott added: 'Slanteddance really focuses on encouraging the creativity of the students, it's a real collaboration between teacher and student. It's rare to see and creates such a lovely and supportive atmosphere.'
