Actiontrack

The all singing, all dancing Actiontrack performance took place in the college on Saturday evening, to a packed BSR. The show was simply excellent, the array of talent was enormous with pupils taking to the stage as if born for it.

The plot told the story of a superficial Tinseltown populated by celebrities. André Peters (Harry Bravery) is told to leave when he displays 'genuine emotion'. When he leaves Tinseltown André meets a variety of social 'misfits' one of which, Tara Cards (Miriam Poulton) predicts the annihilation of Tinseltown when a group of Hippos walk down mainstreet. He also encounters a group of Ice-cream miners, Ben, Jerry and Mr. Whippy (Dudley Browne, Michael McBurney and Jack Armstrong).

The climax of the play was a fantastic pyrotechnics show behind the BSR, accompanied by the stirring rhythms of the Kumidaiko drums performed by various members of the Transition Year.

Have a look at the slide show to the right for more pictures.
