CHICAGO: High School Edition

It was an absolute joy, after the past few years, to have the annual Trinity/Ruyton musical return to the stage for CHICAGO: High School Edition. A slightly modified version of the Broadway classic, the show involved over 90 students in Years 9 to 12 who took on the roles of performers, lighting operators, radio mic technicians, costume dressers, stage managers and front of house operators.

Our young people were able to relish being part of a treasured school calendar event. Apart from being a date on a calendar, the experience for these students – through the rigour and learnings of rehearsals, the messiness of intensive week (where all production elements slowly but surely came together) and the well-deserved audience applause over production week – will live on through lifelong memories and friendships.

Those involved will surely remember this experience of performing and creating theatre with their friends.
