Senior School Scoop
2025-26 PRODUCTION:
BEAUTY AND THE BEAST By: Ava.S (Y9) The familiar taste of love, humour, and fantasy returns once again as our school’s annual production takes the stage. As the famous song goes, “Tale as old as time,” this much-anticipated event brings together technical work, visual art, and performing arts—including music, acting, and dance— into one spectacular performance. This year’s show, Disney’s Beauty and the Beast, stars Hazon (Y9) as Belle and Eddie (Y13) as the Beast. With sparkling, intricately designed costumes, fairytale-like sets, and a magical attention to detail, the production promises an immersive and unforgettable experience for audiences of all ages.
Beauty and the Beast tells the story of a bright yet unconventional girl in a French town who stumbles upon an enchanted castle belonging to a cursed Beast. Over time, Belle manages to crack through the Beast’s cold and unforgiving exterior, teaching audiences valuable lessons about courage, resilience, and true love— while also showing the importance of looking beyond appearances. The story’s timeless message continues to resonate, offering both entertainment and reflection in equal measure.
