IB Theatre News

On November 11 I attended a Japanese Noh Drama performance, The Holy Mother of Nagasaki with two of our MLC School Theatre Students from 2024, Old Girls Hope Selim (Drama Captain 2024) and Sophia Cvetkovski (2024), who took time off amidst their university exam schedules to invite me to this one-night international production. The girls developed a love of theatre and different cultural experiences when they undertook the Theatre Research Project last year and, indeed, Hope researched and performed the Noh Kata, or methods of walking which we could observe live in the performance, a rare opportunity in Australia.

Three of my current Year 11 Theatre students, Jemima Zoud, Dina Saeed and Isabelle Milgate also attended and they can draw on the experience next year. I fully believe that we inspire a love of learning here at MLC School and it was great to see past and present students interacting with an international audience at interval.
