From the Co-curricular Performing Arts Team

The term has started triumphantly for the Performing Arts with a myriad of events.

The entire co-curricular student leadership body met early on Friday morning for a breakfast. The experience was a galvanising experience for the Performing Arts Prefects and Captains who emerged with a staunch sense of vision and fierce passion to remain strongly united in their leadership of programs across the coming year.

12 Angry Women was presented last week as the first major production in the Drama Theatre (SLT). A rigorously realistic drama, the 13 Year 11 actors playing the 12 jurors and a guard, rose magnificently to its richly complex challenges. All of the performers stayed on stage for the entire performance and were unrelenting in their belief and focus.

Commencing tonight is the production of Hating Alison Ashley, a charming and often moving interpretation of the classic novel. Involving over 40 Year 7 to 9 students, the production is a colourfully witty and delightful production celebrating the highs and lows of adolescence and especially the importance of recognising and celebrating who people really are.

A big shout out to the fabulous Pymble musicians who performed at the Gala Ball. Please read Mrs Turner’s report of their wonderful contribution to this fabulous event.
