A quote from Laura
“This year is a special one! It marks five years since I opened Evolution, right in the middle of a global pandemic, and it is incredible to see how far we’ve come. This summer’s show is not just a performance, but a celebration of every student who’s walked through our doors, taken a chance on themselves, and found their confidence on stage. I’m incredibly proud of what we’ve built together and excited for everything that’s still to come.”
