Year 12 Drama Performance Power Play on Tonight

A gunshot is heard…which of the five characters did it, and why? Was it the Goth girl? The football star? The super-intelligent geek? Violence is about power… so is high school…

Tonight the Stage 2 Drama class will present Power Play by Lindsay Price. Students have been working hard on the production, with the onstage talents of Casey Rout, Charlotte Smith, Raven Seniw, Izzy Pandilovska and Ryan Thompson supported by the offstage design talents of Teagan Irvine and Jacob Ross.

The performance will be held at Wehl Street Theatre, with doors opening at 6:30pm for a 7.00pm start; and entry is by gold coin donation at the door. This is a play that tackles difficult subject matter in a stylised way, punctuated with humour throughout. Please note that audiences under the age of 15 are not recommended. We cannot wait to show the results of all our hard work - please come along and show your support!
