5 years of Drama - that says something, surely?


Its been 5 years since we opened our classes in 2008! We have met so many awesome students over the years; some arrive hating their parents for forcing them to do this 'lame' activity, others arrive ready to take on whatever is thrown at them. No matter how the students arrives; I know that by the end of the year they will be standing on stage feeling absolutely exhilarated from conquering their nerves and performing their hearts outs at Productions. That feeling of complete fulfilment, pride and confidence is one that does not come easily for anyone...but its a guaranteed feeling at productions!!! Over the past 5 years I have seen over 1000 students conquer that stage and thus conquer their nerves and fear; and every time I see them bowing for their audience I witness their smiles of joy. We have said goodbye to a few of our students over the years :( Who could ever forget our Youth Theatre cast for "The kidnapping of Kitty O'Hara"...many have left to become young adults in the very scary world that we live in; and although I was sad to say goodbye, I know that they are going out into the world as confident, self-assured and fear-conquering individuals!
