I am delighted to announce that students in the Year 9 and 10 drama classes will be given an opportunity to participate in a Drama Tour to Melbourne during the mid-term break in August.

We will be taking in a host of cultural experiences offered by marvellous Melbourne including an AFL game, a tour of the Victorian College of the Arts and attendance at both parts of Harry Potter and the Cursed Child at the historic Princess Theatre.

Information brochures and booking forms will be distributed next week.

Year 7 And 8 Production – Framed

A production featuring students in Years 7 and 8 will be presented in Term 3. Auditions will be conducted in early Term 2. Rehearsals will be conducted on Tuesday and Friday afternoons and cast members must be available for all rehearsals.

The play being produced is Framed by Carla Moore. The narrative takes place in an Art gallery where famous paintings from history are being stolen. Four of the greatest detectives are summoned to solve the crime.

Framed will be directed by St Peter’s Players Tutor, Ms Romy Bartz.

Auditions will be announced in future editions of Behind The Green Gate and posted on the Drama noticeboard outside the Playhouse.

Theatre is a mirror. A sharp reflection of society.
