Congratulations to MLC School’s Junior Theatresports Team!
A huge congratulations to MLC School’s Junior Theatresports team. The students shone on stage as they entertained us leaving the audience roaring with laughter at Impro Australia’s schools’ challenge held at St Patrick’s school on Monday evening. The afternoon began with a warmup and workshop run by Impro Australia’s experienced coaches. The students performed and competed with seven schools in the evening in front of an audience.
- Claudia Rowe (Year 7)
- Caitlin Ward (Year 7)
- Addison McShane (Year 8)
- Niamh Tulloch (Year 8)
Theatresports is a performance , made up entirely on the spot with only a five second preparation time. They then perform a game, with each game having its own rules. There are one minute, two minute and three minute games. The students choose one game from each section. They then perform and are given a mark from 1-5 from three judges. The team with the highest points wins and the winning teams move up to the semi’s.
We are excited to announce that the MLC school Junior team will be going on to compete at the next round of heats.
We still have some places available to join our Theatresports team held on Tuesdays 3.20pm-4.50pm.
Theatresports is for all levels of experience. If you love to perform and want to flex your improvisational muscles or it’s your first time acting, come along and learn the skills to be a Master Improvisor.
Each term students work through the Theatresports handbook in addition to improvisational activities focused on increasing the girl’s confidence in performance and devising. Improvisation is such a fun way to strengthen their communication skills while exercising their imagination and storytelling abilities. There are performance opportunities such as Impro Australia’s Schools Theatresports challenge, Eisteddfods and PLC Pymble School’s competition. Most importantly we have fun and lots of laughs!
