Drama

Drama shows and productions are an integral component of Norwich school life and are hugely popular across all stages of the school, helping to enhance communication skills, build confidence, emotional intelligence & imagination and promote cultural awareness. The school aims to provide at least one drama opportunity per school section (Juniors, Inters, Seniors) per term, meaning that pupils can involve themselves in up to three pieces of drama each year. Recent opportunities included Musicals such as Grease, Annie, Little Shop of Horrors, and Guys & Dolls, as well as dramatic and comedic plays like Antigone, Treasure Island, The 39 Steps, One Man Two Guvnors, All My Sons, and The Great Gatsby. Our diverse range of performing arts shows are held at various locations across the city, including the Playhouse, Arts Centre, Maddermarket, Cathedral Cloisters, as well on the school site at the Blake studio, a dedicated performance space and the school Chapel.

On Monday, a mighty troupe of almost 100 dancers from across Lower and Senior School descended on Stevenage to take part in the Great Big Dance Off. This was the biggest regional heat yet, with over 50 schools taking part. The squads did an exceptional job in each round against fierce competition, with lower school placing a mighty second, and both junior and senior squads coming fourth in their respective categories. A huge well done to all!

On Wednesday 5 March, Senior Dance pupils had the opportunity to work with professional Hip-Hop company ZooNation! Working with one of their professional dancers, Lindon, they explored the company’s signature style through a technique-lead warm up, followed by learning repertoire from their award winning show ‘Some Like It Hip Hop’. The piece is a story of love, mistaken identity and revolution, in a city where books are banned, and where women are kept subservient to men. Throughout the course of the day, the group put together a piece, which will be showcased at the upcoming Senior Dance Festival. A huge well done to all involved! Book tickets to the Senior Dance Festival here!

On Monday 3 of March, U4 pupils spent the day working with local artist Cat Chapman, developing their dance and acro skills. The morning was spent enthusiastically bouncing around the AcroPad, trying out flips, tricks and all manner of acrobatic skills! They then put these skills into practice, putting together a full dance acro performance piece that will be performed at the upcoming Senior Dance Festival; book here! Great work from the whole group!
