Light and Sound Excursion

On Monday 17 October, our wonderful Year 7 to 10 students in Light & Sound embarked on a very exciting excursion to Chatswood Concourse. We received a personalised tour and experienced the behind the scenes of the current professional production of Mamma Mia. We also learnt about the lighting and audio set up for a professional theatre and concert hall and even went up onto the gallery above the stage where all the lighting rigs are. 

 

Thank you to Chatswood Concourse for allowing us to go behind-the-scenes and Mr Collins for showing us around. It was a wonderful and knowledgeable experience and we hope to do it again next year.
