West Side Story

KAREN SUNDERLAND, HEAD OF PERFORMING ARTS

We were thrilled to present this timeless and powerful musical to our audience during Term 3.

Bringing West Side Story to the stage was a labour of love and brought together a talented cast, dedicated crew, and passionate creative team. We congratulate our talented cast, who poured their hearts and souls into bringing the West Side Story characters to life. They not only honed their singing and dancing skills but also delved deep into the emotional complexities of their roles.

Congratulations, too, to our dedicated crew. They worked tirelessly to create a visually stunning and immersive experience. From the detailed costume and set designs that transport you to the gritty streets of the West Side, to the evocative lighting that enhanced the mood of each scene, every aspect of this production was carefully crafted to draw the audience into the world of the story.

Despite being written in 1957, West Side Story remains relevant today, reminding us of the ongoing struggle for acceptance, unity, and understanding in a world divided by differences.

It is our hope that this production encouraged reflection and conversation among our audience members long after the final curtain fell.
