The Magic that was Annie

 

Wednesday 29 July 2015 saw the conclusion of a most beautiful experience. For the past few days, Annie was all we could think of. The pupils performed with such passion and charisma, thoroughly impressing all with their efforts.

The show was made all the more special by the inclusion of teachers in the cast. While we often talk about the children needing to be challenged, stretched and grown; that was certainly even truer for the adults! It will never cease to amaze me how children and adults alike will better their efforts and up their game when demanded to, we really all can do better than the very best we have in mind – something worth remembering!

Lines, lights, sound, costumes, make-up… what a thrill!

Thank you Mrs van Tonder for a treasure of a memory.

 

A Rumble in the Jungle

Wow, what a week! The excitement levels in the school are running high. This is our final countdown to the opening night of the Jungle Book!
Cast, crew and teachers alike have been diligently rehearsing for months on end and now it all has come together.
Last night was our final full dress rehearsal run through and it went very smoothly.
The theatre awaits for the first official performance tonight, everyone is waiting with bated breath and now all that is left is… LIGHTS, AUDIENCE.. ACTION!
Our best wishes go out to everyone involved! We are so proud of you all.
Break a leg!
