Upcoming holiday school

Due to popular demand, we have decided to do another stage production. The last two were so very popular and the children just absolutely loved dressing up. So, last holiday we were supposed to do The Sword in the Stone and due to some unforeseen circumstances we were not able to carry it out. So..... we will be producing The Sword in the Stone - Helen O Grady way. Holiday school takes place on the 26th - 30th August at Thornhill Primary School, near the Main Mall, and will be held in the Main Hall. The fee for the week is P500 and runs from 8am - 1pm every day. We will also be concentrating a lot on props for the play and having a great fun art week for those children who are creative - so come along and have some fun with us.

Holiday Drama Club

WE will be holding our ever popular holiday club these holidays from 26th - 30th August at Thornhill Primary School for children aged between 5 and 13 years of age.  This time around we will not be doing a stage production but a whole lot of interesting drama related topics, age specific and they all revolve around FUN, FUN, FUN.  Please contact Kathy on 71607116 for booking.

Brand new website!

Wow, after just checking out the Helen O Grady website after its face lift, I am blown away by its user friendly face!  Also, it has breaking news which keeps everyone up to date with what each franchise is doing ... I went on to the new website today to find a write up about our productions we did on Monday night, with pictures, and I did not even type it!!  So impressive.  Please, do yourselves a favour and go and look at our new website.  You can even fill in an application form online now.

The Final Countdown

Well, last week with our lower and upper primary studios it was all about finishing our productions and talking about our props, make up and projection!!!  On Monday 5 August we will be doing The Snake Charmer and Imagine That with our Thornhill Lower and Upper Primary children in the Helen Mathole Hall at Thornhill Primary School.  It has been a bit of an unnerving time because we have not had the hall to practice in for about a month due to school activities going on in there but we are not going to let that deter us, we are going to go in and have fun on Monday night and just relish the experience of being on a stage with lights, make up and all the other things that go with putting on a show.  Wish us luck!!!

On Tuesday we will be doing the same two shows with our Northside studios and our new studio children who come to Rewa (a composite class).  The excitement of getting our costumes ready and all of our props has become a reality now and we hope we are ready for the big day!!!  As they say - it will be alright on the night!!!

Oh and a further mention of our exciting holiday school in August.  These holidays we are doing something new and exciting - a little hint of things to be done in our holiday club are: - stage make up, creating props for plays, improvisations, drama games, talent show, dress up day!  So much more.  If you are home from the 26th - 30th August, please get down to Thornhill Primary School and join our holiday club, it will be so much more fun that just spending your hours at home doing nothing while Mum and Dad are at work.
