Year 12 IB Theatre Collaborative Project Performances
Thursday 4 May - 7pm - 8.30pm
We warmly invite all family and friends to the Collaborative Project evening. In Year 12 IB Theatre students undertake a group devised project, requiring them to develop an original performance for an audience. Each group has spent 7 weeks writing, rehearsing and staging their piece and has developed a specific theatrical intention and desired impact on their audience. Following each performance the students will be keen to hear some feedback from the audience as to the impact of their piece. Hannah Hookway, Archie Ballard, Lucia Poljansek and Yota Nakadoi will present The Clearing. The second project, White Sheets, will be performed by Poppy Leach, Noah Everett, Abbie Genders and Harry Howard.
Where: Bill & Marjorie Oats Theatre, Commercial Road Campus
