What is a House Production?

At Melbourne Girls’ College, we have a strong foundation built on leadership and belonging and the House Production encompasses these values perfectly. House Production is a biannual event at MGC which is an example of our motto, where girls’ “lead and achieve”. It is an entirely student led collaboration, from the selection of the theme by our Arts Captains, to writing, rehearsing and performing.

Starting with a blank canvas can be a daunting task, but it is also a wonderful creative opportunity to have total control over your plot, characters and song choices to create a completely original performance from scratch.

 

When is House Production?

House Production is in Term 3, Week 4. There will be 2 evening performance on Thursday, August 5th and Friday August 6th at the Renaissance Theatre, Kew High (due to the current building works for our new Performing arts building) Put these dates in your calendar now!

Some lunchtimes and Thursdays afterschool will also be required as we get closer to the performance.

How can I be involved?

You might want to be onstage, performing as an actor, dancer and/or singer/instrumentalist.

Or you might prefer to take on a non-performing role, such as backstage crew, lighting, sound, props, costumes, publicity, video, photography- the list is endless!
