Chicago! A city of jazz and gangsters, prohibition and poverty! ‘The Resistible Rise of Arturo Ui’ by Bertolt Brecht is a parable about Adolf Hitler’s rise to power in the 1920s and 30s, set in a curious pastiche of the gangster genre. This play is in many ways a warning from history – why do we continue to allow corrupt evil leaders to gain control over our communities? Come and see our talented year 11 and 12 Duncraig Drama students in this theatrical exuberant performance of this original Brechtian play.

Please Note* This Production contains simulated violence.

Director: Mrs Kellie Billingsley

As part of the Alethea House assembly, Miss Arora and Mr Jakeway brought the iconic balcony scene from Romeo and Juliet to life. Because it was Valentine’s Day, the House assembly explored different kinds of love from romantic love (Romeo and Juliet) to love of God. The assembly concluded with a unique rendition of Taylor Swift’s ‘Love Story’ which was mimed by many staff members. A memorable assembly.
