Grade 7 Production: Mystery at Magpie Manor: 18 & 19 May

A Standing Ovation for our Clifton Performers!

The Sacco Theatre was transported back to the Roaring Twenties on 18 and 19 May as our Grade 7 boys and girls presented their spectacular production, Mystery at Magpie Manor. The resounding success began the moment guests arrived in the foyer, complete with red carpet and stanchions, where they were treated to shortbread and sherry while Grade 7 flapper girls in magnificent dresses posed elegantly to 1920s music around period decor. On stage, the children truly brought their characters to life, beautifully showcasing the social norms and glamour of the era. 

Behind the scenes, the rehearsal period was a fantastic journey of learning and fun. The children gained invaluable theatre skills, immersing themselves in everything from choreography, song, and stage techniques to makeup, lighting, sound, costumes, and a professional photoshoot. We are incredibly proud of everything they achieved. 

This unforgettable production was the result of a massive, heartwarming collaboration between our dedicated staff and parents, a huge well done and massive thank you to everyone involved!
