Senior House Drama 2022

Posted: 28/03/2022

For those lucky enough to get a seat for this year’s packed Senior House Drama competition, it was a veritable cornucopia of delights and a display of performing talent on the very highest scale throughout the entirety of the evening. The choice of plays was also impressive and it was good to see a range of pieces from intimate two-handers to several very large-scale ensemble performances.

Almost eighty students appeared on stage, some for the very first time, but there was a uniformly professional approach from all. Witty, wise and entertaining adjudication from actor and screenplay writer Theo Fraser-Steele, completed a superb event.

In an evening of memorable highlights, personal favourites included School House’s lucid interpretation of Waiting For Godot; the image of the rolling transported convicts at the start of Elmshurst’s Our Country’s Good; eight Hazeldene students curtseying perfectly in unison in full Elizabethan dress during Emilia; the grotesque swaggering gentlemen in Thomas Cookes’ gender swapped production of Posh, and the final, unforgettably haunting images of Marcus A Y cradling his patient in Equus, which won the best play trophy for Wendron-Gordon.
