Year 12 Solo Showcase “To Thine Own Self Be True”

Yr 12 IB students presented their Solo Performance Examination on Tuesday 1 June at 6.30pm in the Drama Studio. Our students engaged powerfully with the work of contemporary Theatre Theorists as they brought their challenging pieces to the stage in the Drama studio. They received insightful feedback from the audience to use in their final analysis of their performances for External Examination. 

Yr 12 HSC students will be presenting their individual works in performance and design for their final examination at 6pm on Monday 7 June in the Adams Centre. Please join them as they step on to the stage for their solo showcase of major works. Spaces are limited and seats can be booked through both Trybooking and on the iLearn course page. 

Griffin Ambassadors

Running successfully since 2004, Griffin Ambassadors is an annual access-all-areas program for yr 10 to 12 students supported by the Robertson Foundation. The year-long program is stocked with workshops, performances and access to industry professionals, all geared to support the next generation of theatre-goers and theatre-makers. Ambassadors are united by a common curiosity about contemporary Australian stories, a love of theatre and the motivation to know more! Ambassadors might be curious techies, budding playwrights, outgoing performers, or maybe just love going to see theatre.

Applications for the 2022 Griffin Ambassadors program will open in late 2021. To be notified when this happens, please leave your details here.
