Hello everyone, this is Lily-Mai and Taylor from Year 6.  In this week's blog, we will be reporting on the Schools 2019 summer performance of A Midsummer Night's Dream.  This play is an Old-English classic, written by William Shakespeare, set in Athens, Greece.  In the 16th Century, when this romance was written, any mischievous doings were always blamed on the fairies or the elves.  This play is based around 4 lovers who fall under a curse from a flower, named "Love-In-Idleness".  This causes friendship problems between the childhood buddies, resulting in arguments. 

Every child in Years 5&6 participated .  We even controlled the lights and sound and choreographed the dances ourselves.  As a result, we have learned from our mistakes and improved our acting skills throughout our rehearsals and performances.  Our play was directed and produced by Mr Hinton, who will be retiring this year and will be greatly missed.  He helped us to grow in confidence and we all now realise that it's not about having the most lines or a "big part", it's about taking part and trying our hardest no matter what part we get.  The whole of the cast have grown throughout our show and had so much fun performing to our audiences.  Thank you and we hope you enjoyed our last performance.
