Light in the Dark  

Class Five were pleased to bring their long awaited production of 'Death on the Nile' to an eager audience.  It was a good way to cast off the shackles of covid restrictions and come together for an evening of fun and laughter.

The class wrote the first draft of this light treatment of a dark mythical tale from ancient Egypt.  The students then participated in over eight redrafts and edits to the script, as well as being very hands on with the making of props, and painting of backdrops. Many ideas were pooled and workshopped on how to bring a theatrical rendering of the script to the stage.

Of course, there were many lines and cues to learn, as well.  The students worked very hard, bringing all their cooperation, skills and passion to the production.  The audience were delighted and enthralled by the kaleidoscopic scenes of sword fights, sorcery, intrigue, music, and dance.  The popcorn was also a smash hit!

Big thank you to the audience for coming out on such a cold and wet night.  Many thanks to Pamela and Evie for all your backstage assistance and support.

Well done Class Five!
