Year 11 Drama Evening

It is assessment time for Drama students in Year 11 and you are invited to attend their Drama evening on this Wednesday 23 September.
 

Family, Friends and Enemies is a collection of scenes from different New Zealand plays which deal with human relationships. Topics covered are: Betrayal, Racism, How history relates to the present, Teen love and culture clash.

The scenes are divided into two sections, the first being from the play Sunset Café by Gary Henderson which deals with problems in young people’s relationships.

The second section contains scenes from The Pohutukawa Tree by Bruce Mason, Niu Sila by Dave Armstrong and Oscar Kightley, Romeo and Tusi by Oscar Kightley and Wheeler’s Luck by Nigel Collins, Toby Leach and Damon Andrews. These scenes deal with religion, superstition, culture clash and teen love - often with humour. They explore familial bonds, friendships and animosity. It is important to note that some parts are played by more than one person.

 

We look forward to seeing you here!
