On Friday 6th December, the Year 7 & 8 drama scholarship students captivated audiences with The Dark Woods, an original production inspired by The Grimm Fairytales. The students wrote the script themselves, weaving a hauntingly imaginative story set deep in the mysterious woods.


The performance showcased their enthusiasm for physical theatre techniques, using expressive movement and dynamic staging to bring the eerie atmosphere to life. While some students delivered powerful performances on stage, others excelled behind the scenes, managing props, lighting, and stage direction with creativity and precision.

This student-led production was a stunning display of teamwork, innovation, and theatrical flair. Click on the video below to watch their performance of The Dark Wood.
