This 2020 Drama Festival journey has been one of perseverance, accepting our individual differences and having the ability to believe in the unknown. By understanding others' opinions and learning to listen to each other, this group of incredible students have learnt that team building and communication are key attributes in defining our individual character.

The group of 17 students performed the play, “Over the Wall” by James Saunders which is about an island, on which lived a people, no better and no worse than most. Defined by the great wall that encircles their world, the inhabitants of this island don’t know life to be any different; they live in their own bubble where conversation about the wall is what keeps them occupied. Whether they hate the wall, or love the wall, or have an indifferent opinion, no one is game to find out what is over the wall. Or are they?

I am so grateful to have had this opportunity to work with such an incredible group of passionate students. I hope they have found this experience as rewarding as I have. We look forward to seeing the amazing work they produce in years to come.
