The show was the first directed by Louise Marsh for CMYT and she said she was “over the moon” at the nomination. She said: “The young people are incredibly talented and we have an amazing crew working with them. “I have been to the NODA awards before and I’ve always thought it would be great to be nominated. Now we have been it’s unbelievable. “People ought to come along and see just how talented they are.” The group is split into seniors – whose production has been nominated – and juniors.
