SAGC Musical 2021/22
Directed by Ms Ko, the school musical for 2021/22 is called “Super Happy Awesome News”. The story revolves around the rivalry of two sisters, Parker and Joey, who want to create the best good news networks and find themselves competing for the title of happiest news show. The musical has many segments from reporting the weather to advertisements for “spicy water”. The sisters, in the end, collaborate together and decide that honesty is best, so create the “Super Honest Awesome News”.
Facing challenges due to the pandemic Ms Ko turned the stage show into a film instead. Students adapted readily and rose to the occasion. Students in the musical, both actors and stage crew, enjoyed being part of the musical and over 90% of them reported that their English had improved due to their involvement.
During Activity Week, the entire student cohort viewed the musical, completed a feedback form and took part in a Kahoot quiz based on the musical. The response from students was overwhelmingly positive with 96% enjoying the musical. Many enjoyed the songs and found the musical funny and entertaining.
Congratulations to Ms Ko, all students involved and her team, the musical was a great success.
