Fifty talented youngsters from across Fife have come together for a two-week singing, dancing and acting programme at the Lochgelly Centre.

The Stage Stars Summer Intensive was held to help young people develop new skills while building confidence and working alongside industry professionals.

This year, the organisers managed to help even more children by offering free places for some via care services.

OnFife stepped in to help make this happen, allowing youngsters who may not have otherwise been able to attend to take part.

And the children have been working towards their final performance on Saturday, August 1 at 2pm at the centre.

Family and friends are invited to attend as they put on a show organisers say they have rehearsed to great lengths.

A Stage Stars spokesperson said: "The intensive has given children and young people the opportunity to develop their skills in singing, dancing, and acting while building confidence, making new friendships, and working alongside experienced industry professionals in a fun and supportive environment."

It also brought together performers from different towns, allowing them to build friendships and share their talents in one place.

The spokesperson added: "From energetic dance routines and powerful vocals to engaging acting scenes, the youngsters will demonstrate outstanding commitment, enthusiasm, and teamwork.

"The summer intensive has brought together performers of all ages from communities across Fife, highlighting the wealth of local talent, while creating an inclusive environment where every child has the chance to grow in confidence, express themselves and make lasting friendships."
