Drama Matters

The Climate Movies – Not Dead Yet

Last year students from the Senior & Intermediate Drama Ensembles worked together to write, film and shoot four short movies that were linked together under the theme of climate emergency. We hired a production company called cblok and they worked with the students when filming and editing and the results have really paid off. 

We will finally be presenting these movies on Monday 19 September in the Sarto Centre at 6.00 pm. To advise of your attendance on the night we ask that you book via the Trybooking link below.  Tickets are free, booking is simply for seating and catering purposes. We hope you can join us and we will be giving out awards.
