Spotlight on Shakespeare : Junior and Senior Drama Productions

Earlier this year pupils from across the school brought two of Shakespeare’s most beloved comedies to life with creativity, passion, and flair. We invite you to enjoy both production videos in full.

Junior Production – A Midsummer Night’s Dream

Tuesday 11th March

Our lower school pupils came together to present a uniquely Japanese performance of ‘A Midsummer Night’s Dream’, transporting audiences into a magical world of mistaken identities, enchanted forests, and transformative love. The performance was followed by a reflective Q&A session, inviting cast and audience members to consider the modern-day relevance of Shakespeare’s themes. Watch the full junior production video below:

Senior Production – Much Ado About Nothing

Thursday 13th March and Friday 14th March

Set in 1980s Japan, this high-energy adaptation featured live music, dynamic choreography, and bold technical design, all driven by a dedicated student production team. With humour, heartbreak, and powerful performances, the play explored timeless themes of love, deception, and honour, and incorporated modern elements, including audience interaction.
