IB Theatre - Year 12 Solo Theatre Performances
Wednesday 13 September
We warmly invite all members of our school community to an evening of culminating performances presented by Year 12 IB Diploma Theatre students. Their last Higher Level project is a Solo Theatre Piece. Students must select a theatre practitioner whose approach to theatre making interests them and from their research create their own original performance based on key aspects of that practitioner’s work. Solo performers this year are Abbie Genders, Archie Ballard, Poppy Leach, Lucia Poljansek, Noah Everett, Yota Nakadoi and Hannah Hookway.
The performances will be followed by Q & A sessions as students are required to gain feedback from their audience as to the impact of their theatre piece. This evening of theatre is highly recommended for all senior students, in particular, High School students who have selected or are considering the IB Diploma for Years 11 and 12.
When: Wednesday 13 September, 6.30 - 8.30pm
Where: Bill & Marjorie Oats Theatre, Commercial Road Campus
Entry: Free, doors will open at 6.20pm.
