MLC School Theatresports Team Shine at Theatresports Schools Challenge

A commercial for a pillow that screams when you lay on it, a hospital where everyone keeps leaving mid emergency, and an attempt at baking cookies that crossed multiple genres were just some of the wonderful story lines explored by the MLC School Junior Team at Tuesday night’s Theatresports Schools Challenge.

Hosted by Impro Australia and attended by schools from around the Inner West the MLC School players showcased strong teamwork, characterisation and imagination while creating stories on the spot.
