Miss Martel is in her forties, with long red hair and wears a striped red shirt and a blue headband.

She says HELLO EVERYBODY.
AT BIG TOP ACADEMY WE PRIZE
INNOVATIVE STUDENTS WHO COME UP
WITH INCREDIBLE PERFORMANCES.
ALWAYS AFTER MONTHS OF
SUPERVISED TRAINING WITH
TEACHERS LIKE ME.
SO KIDS GET INSPIRED BY THEIR
SKILLS AND CREATIVITY BUT BE
SAFE.
DON'T TRY ANY OF THIS WITHOUT
PROPER CIRCUS COACHING.
ENJOY THE SHOW.

April is in her early teens, with long straight blond hair and wears a blue skirt and a white crossed cardigan.

She says HI.
I'M APRIL AND THIS IS MY
PERFORMANCE IN THE MID TERM
SHOWCASE.

The Big Top Academy logo appears with the caption "Big top performance."

April says I KNEW AS SOON AS IT WAS TIME
FOR AUDITIONS THAT I WANTED THE
LEAD.
I HAD TO BE THE CAPTAIN.
SO WHEN I GOT THE PART I WAS SO
EXCITED.
I WORKED REALLY HARD EVERYDAY
AND I EVEN HAD A SOLO WHICH WAS
SO SCARY.
SO I WAS PRETTY NERVOUS AND THEN
WHEN I FOUND OUT MY OLD FRIEND
FROM BALLET, BETHANY, WAS IN THE
AUDIENCE, WELL, THAT WAS EVEN
MORE PRESSURE.
BUT I WAS ABLE TO CALM MY
BUTTERFLIES AND I THINK IT WENT
REALLY WELL.
SO HERE'S ME, APRIL, AS CAPTAIN
BLACKHEART.

(music lays)

The students start jumping on the trampoline, dancing and doing all types of acrobatic moves.

April performs on the aerial hoop. She sees Bethany is recording her from the audience.

Nicholas and Max engage in an aerial rope fight.

April picks up the trident.

The audience gives a standing ovation.

April says EVEN BETHANY WAS
IMPRESSED.
