201022 QEH Open Mic 9400

The QEH Theatre saw fantastic music and drama performances last week.

On Wednesday, the Year 11 drama GCSE group staged their devised performance examination. Pupils are required to create an original piece of theatre in a particular style. Both groups choose to use the ideas of Brecht who used techniques designed to challenge the audience and encourage a questioning approach.

What Happened That Evening? was a piece about domestic abuse and how the labels that we give people can affect how others view them.  In Simon, the issue of corruption was explored through the use of humour and satire. These pieces were insightful and entertaining and showed a range of vocal and physical skills.

The following evening, after a three year hiatus, we were delighted to welcome the return of Open Mic Night. This event offers an opportunity for our pop, rock and jazz musicians to take to the stage and, as always, they did not disappoint!

The audience gave the musicians a warm and appreciative reception as pupils from Years 7 to 13 were represented, performing solo and in bands. It was fantastic to have so many first time performers in the programme including our first ever solo female singers!

QEH pupils enjoyed an unforgettable cricket tour in Cape Town, competing fiercely, exploring iconic sights, and spotting wildlife at Aquila.

I believe attending QEH has significantly improved my daughter's life. QEH has helped her grow in confidence and character, as well as academically. Your teachers and support staff have guided my daughter to develop her true potential. She now has brilliant life skills with improved critical thinking, analysis and communication. I am honoured and proud to be allowed to be associated with your school.
