With her wealth of knowledge, skill and industry contacts, it\u2019s safe to say that Armielle sailed the \u2018BATB\u2019 ship through those stormy waters. If Arminelle was our Captain, Year 11 student, Emer Friel, was most certainly First Mate. Emer demonstrated maturity and insight beyond her years in this challenging role. Her input was invaluable, as was that of Dan Lobley who joined us in the final stages of rehearsal as the show&#8217;s Stage Manager. Dan&#8217;s technical expertise, coupled with a calm, generous demeanour, made him a popular and respected part of the BATB family.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>In a show like\u00a0<em>Beauty and the Beast<\/em>, audiences expect to be visually wowed. While the villager costumes and props were easier to source, the same could not be said for anything in the enchanted castle. Fate smiled on us \u2013 Toowoomba Anglican School had performed the show in 2021 and were happy to sell on their costumes. Crisis averted, right? Not quite. While we now had a number of the key costumes (Cogsworth, Lumiere, Mrs Potts, Madame Wardrobe, Chip and Beast), the rest had to be made. Dancing whisks, dinner plates, cutlery, flowers and fruit bowls \u2013 all of these items were made from scratch. Considerable brain-storming went into the \u2018what\u2019 and \u2018how\u2019 for each object.<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>What would form the \u2018bones\u2019 of the dinner plates? Answer: hula hoops and yoga mats!<\/li>\n<li>What could we find to make life-sized whisks? Answer: pool noodles and irrigation flexible tubing!<\/li>\n<li>How can they wear the colander (i.e. oversized laundry baskets with mop heads as the draining spaghetti)? Answer: Attach suspenders and add a jaunty beret!<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>By re-imagining everyday objects, we were able to create magical, yet quirky costumes for the castle ensemble.<\/p>\n<p>One of the great things about this year\u2019s show was how active cast members became in the behind-the-scenes preparations. Students styled wigs, wielded hot-glue guns and sewed buttons. So much of what audiences saw was produced by our cast.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3793\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2022\/06\/BB-Friday-Night-0766.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"1333\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2022\/06\/BB-Friday-Night-0766.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2022\/06\/BB-Friday-Night-0766-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2022\/06\/BB-Friday-Night-0766-1536x1024.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2022\/06\/BB-Friday-Night-0766-225x150.jpg 225w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-thumbnail wp-image-3791 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2022\/06\/BB-Friday-Night-0033-320x320.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2022\/06\/BB-Friday-Night-0033-320x320.jpg 320w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2022\/06\/BB-Friday-Night-0033-1024x1024.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/><\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">Once in the theatre, things began to move swiftly. Musical Director, Dr Mark Smith, had assembled some of the city&#8217;s best musicians to play the show&#8217;s iconic tunes. Incredible backdrops and set pieces \u2013 some designed by our talented VA teachers &#8211; Mr Marano, Mrs Walsh and Mr Pope &#8211; transformed the stage. Arminelle, with the invaluable help of Mr Goulter and Ms Butler, continued to finesse and polish each moment, while Ms Hudson, Ms Doyle and Miss Jarrah helped shape key moments. Ms Tillack from IPC joined us in the theatre; her experience, good-humour and positivity was most appreciated.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: left\">The Production Team\u2019s dedication to excellence set the standard; their drive to deliver a first-rate show to Townsville audiences was matched by the cast and crew. Ultimately, however, we remain indebted to Arminelle. Her undeniable passion for the Arts was the beating heart of this show. She crafted <em>Beauty and the Beast<\/em> into something more than a schmaltzy school performance. Her musical &#8211; OUR musical &#8211; was clever, vibrant and moving, and we will be forever grateful to her.<\/p>\n<p>With so much talent to work with, and so much goodwill generated through college and community collaborations, <em>Beauty and the Beast<\/em> was an enormous success and one of which we are incredibly proud.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you to everyone who contributed to the show\u2019s success.<\/p>\n<p><em>PS: Hosting duties for the next Combined Schools\u2019 Musical now fall to Ignatius Park College and Ms Tillack is extremely excited to deliver another quality production to Townsville audiences in 2023. <\/em><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-thumbnail wp-image-3797 alignright\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2022\/06\/BB-0072-320x320.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2022\/06\/BB-0072-320x320.jpg 320w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2022\/06\/BB-0072-1024x1024.jpg 1024w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 320px) 100vw, 320px\" \/><\/p>\n<p><em>COMBINED SCHOOLS\u2019 MUSICAL REFLECTIONS<\/em><\/p>\n<p>Being a part of BATB this year was truly an incredible experience!

The experience, whilst establishing new friendships, allowed us to work with experienced professionals, namely our incredible director, Arminelle Fleming. She harnessed our existing enthusiasm for theatre and encouraged us at each rehearsal to achieve more. It was a unique experience and one that I will forever cherish (and miss daily). I highly doubt the songs will ever leave my mind and I can confidently state there will ever be another cast who will love their stage manager as much as we did (thank you, Stage Manager Dan). I thank everyone who made <em>Beauty and the Beast<\/em> not only successful, but also unforgettable.

The Junior Physics Odyssey is a program where current Year Ten students are invited to participate in various physics experiments, workshops and lectures, which will hopefully give us an insight into senior physics. Personally, I\u2019m hoping to see the pitch drop experiment, which is the longest running lab experiment in history. The program also allows me to meet with other students from around Queensland, as well as experienced UQ students. I am very grateful for this opportunity and would like to thank the Science and Math teachers at St Pat\u2019s for their help.

They came to understand what mass hysteria, rumours, fear, judgement and skewed social status can do to a society of isolated people.<\/p>\n<p>Students worked diligently to enhance their performance skills of movement, gesture, verbal dynamics and focus on stage.

Translated from the original German, and directed by the company\u2019s Artistic Director, Terri Brabon, this was an incredible experience. TheatreiNQ expertly introduced students to the Theatre of Social Comment, showing parallels between Hitler\u2019s invasion of Poland in 1939 to Putin\u2019s invasion of Ukraine. Brabon combatted any assumed lack of knowledge of history with stark <em>between-scene<\/em> reminders via projections of contemporary 1930s news headlines and news photographs; this constantly linked the play to the rise of Hitler.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-3781\" src=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2022\/06\/JBU_-Drama-excursion.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"2000\" height=\"874\" srcset=\"https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2022\/06\/JBU_-Drama-excursion.jpg 2000w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2022\/06\/JBU_-Drama-excursion-768x336.jpg 768w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2022\/06\/JBU_-Drama-excursion-1536x671.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/d1dfwahqlx324v.cloudfront.net\/uploads\/sites\/55\/2022\/06\/JBU_-Drama-excursion-343x150.jpg 343w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 2000px) 100vw, 2000px\" \/><\/p>\n<p>To add an additional dimension to the production, Brabon set the play in 1930s Australian gangster land. The combination of the Australian setting, the German Weimar cabaret, exaggerated cartoon-style acting, and the constant reminders of the Hitler\u2019s rise to power, served to reinforce that such historical moments are much closer to home than we might think.
