Year 10 Drama had the opportunity to perform original pieces of theatre they developed in Term 1 at the Parramatta Riverside Theatre in the ‘Short + Sharp’ scriptwriting competition.
They were mentored throughout the day by a theatre industry expert before competing against other schools in the evening, judged by a panel of professional theatre makers.
The three plays entered were:
‘Bullying 101 for Dummies’ – Sofia J, Ashleigh K, Tiana C and Micaelah O.
‘Pressures of Society’ – Analiyah T, Ally D, Victoria T, Alana P
‘A Nice and Brief Lesson in all Things Evil’ – Charlotte S, Marc T, Alessio S, Hayden H
Tiana C – ‘It was a great experience and we built a strong bond with each other.’
Charlotte S – ‘The energy my group created when we came off stage was amazing, we were so excited and we were just in a massive group hug screaming that we all loved each other and how awesome we did - it was really something special.’
Analiyah T – ‘It was great to have an amazing opportunity to perform as an actor in a real theatre’.
