Brentwoodian 2021

23 The return to a more permanent on-site education naturally saw the return of live theatre and it was really quite joyous. First, the Junior Drama club took to the woods with Mrs Veares’ beautiful adaptation of The Lion, the Witch and theWardrobe. Our promenade through the woods was a stunning experience and a true reminder of what we had missed. Next the Lower Sixth brought the fun with The CompleteWorks of William Shakespeare: Abridged on the outdoor stage. These leaders of school Drama did not disappoint, putting on a 90-minute show that was filled with laughter, energy and outstanding performances. Shortly after it was the Year 10s (again) who took to the outdoor stage with their production of The Exam, another comedy and another very funny evening, ably directed by Mrs Hermosa. Thank you to everyone I have worked with over the last seven years; it has been a very special time. Particular thanks must go to the hundreds and hundreds of young people I have taught and directed and who have brought me such happiness day after day. By Mr M Bulmer Director of Performing Arts
