On Monday 17 January, comedy duo Cassie Symes and Georgina Thomas from Thick 'n' Fast Theatre brought their acclaimed show, General Secretary, to the black box studio. Parodying male world leaders and satirising the patriarchy, it was a show to inspire our own drama students to make their own feminist theatre in addition to being laugh out loud funny! Before the show, Cassie and Georgina treated our year 10 and 12 drama students to a theatre making workshop which focused on how to generate content with a view to making your own piece of comedy theatre.
Last weekend, 75 year 10 students completed the silver practice expedition for their @DofE. They walked along part of the South Downs improving their navigational skills and the instructors were impressed by the keen focus, determination and sense of fun shown by all!
