The Year 9/10 Drama class has been preparing their performance entries for Canberra Theatre’s Act Up! Festival. This festival involves Canberra and coastal high school students creating performances based on the theme of “Culture and Identity”.

This week, the class participated in their first of three workshops with visiting industry professionals including. Clare Moss, is an actor who has appeared in shows like Blue Heelers and Neighbours as well as many TV commercials. This series of workshops will allow students to further develop their small group and collective performances. Students are stepping up the performance standard and creating engaging and thought-provoking work showcasing their talents and ability to work together.

Students will perform their final pieces on Friday 31 May on the Canberra Theatre stage. Tickets will be available to purchase via the Theatre website.
