Helene Barrell, Head of Drama and Theatre, tells us about the Year 8 Production Tuesday by Alison Carr.
For our final Drama and Theatre production of 2024-25, Year 8 took to the stage to perform Tuesday by Alison Carr. Directed by Kim Albone and assisted by Becky Jones, the production was action-packed and high energy, with dynamic ensemble movement sequences and breathtaking lifts inspired by renowned theatre company Frantic Assembly.
Set in the fictional Lane End School, the play sees students and teachers transported into a parallel world through a dimensional rift, whilst new people rain down on the school to take their place. Creating the inter-dimensional travel sequences was challenging but allowed for a very creative approach: movement sequences devised by Miss Albone with the cast were beautifully complimented by some very clever and colourful lighting designs, created by our talented in-house theatre tech team Charlotte Cooper and Olive Seidler.
We would like to thank backstage students in Years 9 and 12 for their contributions to the costume and prop designs.
