The Wizard of Oz” Drama Club 2012
This year in the Drama Club, we worked on “The Wizard of Oz”, one of the most charming stories of all times. I adapted the script directly from the famous movie and added two wicked witches to the cast. The girls were very enthusiastic about the play from the very beginning, and each of them wanted to play a different role since all of them are extremely appealing to be performed. Before starting the rehearsals, we watched the movie -starring Judy Garland as Dorothy- and took a lot of useful information from it about the characters, their personalities, conflicts, ways of speaking and acting, the costumes, the scenery, etc. The group rehearsed responsibly throughout the year, learnt their lines and brought themselves amazing costumes (some of them homemade). Every year, the Drama Club shows its play in the ESSARP Drama Festival, held at Florida Day School. Unfortunately, this year we couldn’t attend because the girl who played the main role had to be operated on that same week. Nevertheless we had the opportunity to show the play in our auditorium with beautiful scenery (Thanks, Marisú, for that!) and costumes. I’m very proud to say that the girls' performances were great and one of the most important things is that they learnt how to speak on stage without using microphones (like most professional actors do in theaters). The audience, P6 and specially invited relatives, enjoyed it very much and we all learnt a lot with this wonderful experience. Yaiza Conti Ferreyra
