Incursions and Immersions

Theatre Studies Excursion 

As part of their Unit 1 studies Year 11 Theatre Studies headed to Melbourne on May 21 to view and analyse the hit musical Hadestown. In combination with the performance, students had the opportunity to view the top designs exhibition at Melbourne Museum. 

Top designs is a fabulous experience for students to see the work, effort and creativity that goes into major works in VCE. this helps the students in potentially choosing their path and committing to their choices. 

Hadestown was thoroughly enjoyed by all students, and for some was their first experience of a Broadway style musical. The high quality of the music, design and acting was then discussed and assessed in student SAC and exams. 

The students were accompanied by their theatre studies teacher Miss Hof and Performing Arts Teacher Mr Nichols, who provided his expertise to their discussions and can confirm that Australian Theatre is comparable with his countless experiences of Broadway.
