The Middle School House Pantomime
Friday 31 May | 5.45pm
The Middle School House Pantomime will be the night of nights for House spirit and frivolity! Traditionally based on a fairytale, a Pantomime is a comedic show, featuring song, dance, audience participation and slapstick humour. Written with a Friends’ school twist, the Middle School House Pantomime promises to be a School event not to be missed. Set to lift the roof of The Farrall Centre on Friday 31 May, we ask that audiences are seated at 5:45pm for a 6pm start. Who will our guest judges crown as the winners of the 2024 Middle School House Panto? Be there to find out!
Performances are as follows:
- Hodgkin: Cinderella
- Ransome: Snow White and the Seven Dwarves
- Unwin: Jack and the Beanstalk
- Mather: Hansel and Gretel
Proceeds from this event will be proudly donated to The Humour Foundation who promote wellbeing, lift spirits and improve health through joyful humour, insightful connection, and creative play in hospitals around Australia.
