Enrolments now open!
We have a very special project kicking off this coming term – Brickworks’ annual full school production.
This year we’ll be performing in the Rutherford College school hall!
We love this part of the year – it’s inclusive, very fun, and a great way to bring the whole Brickworks community together. This will be our ninth production and mark Brickworks Drama’s 10 Year Anniversary!
The tutors will workshop ideas with the kids at the start of Term 3, then write an original play based on scenes they have helped us devise. The kids feel a lot of pride in their contributions to the final script, and we love following their imaginations! This year we are thinking of a mystery theme – The Case of the Missing [fill in the blank] or similar! The kids are keen, and we can’t wait to get started.
In the past, we have run into overlapping dates with winter sports prizegivings. To avoid this, we are going to rehearse all of Term 3 and perform at the beginning of Term 4. The show will go on at the end of Week 2, Term 4.
What does this mean? You will need to enrol your child in both Terms 3 and 4 this year, if you would like them to be involved in the production.
For those who can’t attend Term 3 (and therefore can’t be involved in the production), we will also be accepting late enrolments for Term 4, meaning you can join us from Week 3, Term 4 onwards for some end of year fun at a slightly reduced rate.
So, if you are keen to enrol for Terms 3 and 4 and be involved in the production, please be aware you are also committing to three days of weekend rehearsals which are:
Term Three
Sunday 21st September – part day for rehearsals
*last Sunday of Term 3
Term Four
Sunday 12th Oct – all day for tech rehearsals
Saturday 18th Oct – all day for dress rehearsal, then final performance in the afternoon
We can’t emphasise enough how important these rehearsals are. It’s the only time we can bring all the classes together to run the show, and these are the days when a lot of the important pieces of the puzzle fall into place. Please only enrol if you can attend these rehearsals.
The rest of Term Four will have a Storytelling theme designed to be low stress and lots of fun as the silly season kicks in around us!
We can’t wait to see your children shine on stage and bring this unique production to life. Thank you for your continuous support, and we look forward to an amazing term of creativity and rehearsals!
