Currently in our school, drama activities are
not undertaken, but some years ago four
theatrical performances
by Shakespeare were made on the
scene with great success and enthusiasm.
The plays were performed by the students of the IV and V
class high school and they were coordinated by the English
teacher and other teachers of the school. The works were
properly adapted and performed entirely in English. This
project was done by the students, who were responsable for
the costumes, music, choreography and everything else that
was necessary for the success of the performance.
The last play acted out in our school was done
during the previous Comenius project,
in which the students of two classes were
involved.
The two classes staged Romeo
and Juliet, and even this was
acted out in English, to give
the students of the other
europen schol the opportunity
to understand the
performance.
Even local newspapers published
several articles on these activities,
highlighting the positive aspects.
And descibing the commitment of
the stundents to the different
activities and the success they
obtained in the community.
Most of the students enjoyed
participating in the preparation of
the performances because it was
both a useful and fun experience.
The project "group interest Scala" in our school was founded in 1996. It was a project open to all students who wished to learn about the world of theatre. With this purpose in mind , some teachers organized lessons to deepen the students’ knowledge of plays that were then performed at “La Scala”theatre in Milan. The students were then fortunate enough to wach them live.
Students who participated in each
year were always very numerous
and it was possible to continue this
initiative until 2007.
