Creating productions at BCS is a really important part of learning and confidence development. Our students shine again and again, we are incredibly proud of them and grateful for the time and energy they continue to offer. As a school we produce productions in the Primary school, High School, Year 11 Drama and Year 9/10 Drama. The year 11 production is designed as a study of theatrical style and text. We adapt historical texts for a contemporary audience, so students may learn about the relevance of theatre in Australia today. In year 9/10 Drama we create fairy story productions, aimed at a primary aged audience. In these productions we aim to learn about stage blocking, the elements of production (lighting, costume and set) and the learning of lines. This process of learning about theatre through creating a production makes our students strong, confident performers, who develop a solid knowledge of theatre and how it is made. 

Our 2014 Year 9/10 production is, The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe. This production is fun, humourous and unique. We've included songs like: I have a Dream (ABBA), Killing in the Name Of (Rage Against the Machine) and I Cast a Spell On You (Creedence). Our Aslan is cheeky, the white witch is glamourous, the children are jovial, the beavers are huge, Mr Thumnas is graceful and our chorus is thoroughly involved. We have combined our senior students with a small group of students from year 3/4. These younger students are performing in the chorus, playing minions, citizens of Narnia, wolves and children of London. It has been a joy to work with them throughout this process and we look forward to performing with them on stage. 

Our production of The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, runs November 7th - 8th. Tickets can be booked through the front office of BCS and paid for on the night. 

November 7th - 6.30pm and November 8th - 2.30pm and 6.30pm. Tickets: Adults: $10, Concession: $5, Family of 4: $25
