Today was the end of the term as we break up for the summer - concluding what has been our first year as Beacon Youth Theatre. It has been a high octane period of activity - to read more about our show 'Land of Lost Things' have a look at our director Andrew McGregor's blog here.
The last few weeks have seen us working on various different projects. The P1-2s were acting out scenes from Katie Morag, whilst the P3-5s devised short plays about super-heros, the P6-7s were looking at the legend of the kelpie and our seniors worked on 'actioning' - a way of approaching text using Stanislavsky's system.
So a big variety of stuff has been going, we are now looking forward to our summer school which starts on Monday 1st July. This is where we spend a week creating a show from absolutely nothing! It's always exciting, and a little nerve-wracking, for our teachers as nobody know exactly how it's going to work.
We are also very pleased to announce that our tutor Megan Yeomans has gained a BA(hons) in visual art, so well done to Megan! Have a great summer everyone!
