College Information & Events
22 May
Over four nights from the 28th to the 31st of May at 7:30pm Senior Drama students will present a series of original performance pieces to showcase of their talents, skills and abilities within VCE Drama.
The performance is designed within the Unit 3 study to assess students on their abilities to create and work within an Ensemble performance. This year they have been given the challenge of creating an ensemble performance that focuses on the topic of Extinction
In a dystopian world of the future a group of disparate characters face an impending catastrophe caused by a multitude of factors. This potential world ending event threatens their very existence. As they meet at the site of humanities last hope the characters implore, justify or plead why they intend to stay or leave and implore others to make an informed choice.
Four groups over the four nights of performance will endeavour to dramatically explore through storytelling concepts revolving around extinction.
Each student within this year’s task is responsible for the development of at least one substantial character. The complex task challenges them to master the skills required to both create and perform their own work. The play will be a strong blend of both comedy and drama and will be presented within an eclectic theatrical style. Each performance will run for approximately 30 minutes with only 2 of the performance will be presented each evening. These original drama pieces will incorporate the use of a dynamic soundtrack and creative use of lighting and projection.
Seating is unreserved and no booking is required over the 4-night season.
Venue is the Mt. Clear Auditorium. Entry via gold coin donation
