This academic year, this December, history was made for The International School of Moscow. After a long absence, The International School of Moscow was excited and proud to finally return to producing its famous Secondary School Productions!
From ‘Honk!’ to ‘Annie’, from ‘Little Shop of Horrors’ to ‘Where the Fairytales Are’. We have produced a wide variety of musicals over the years. For this year, we had the honour of staging Matilda, adding this musical to a long (and thankfully once again growing) list of productions. Returning to creating full-scale productions presented itself with many challenges (as you might expect from a long-term absence).
One of the biggest challenges was that the majority of the cast had never performed in a full-scale International School of Moscow production before! It was clear that there were some nerves amongst the cast because of this fact, however...
If you were able to come see this musical, you would never have known that! The way the students maturely conducted themselves and encouraged each other throughout the rehearsal process was extremely impressive. The way the students came together to support and lift each other while at the theatre was beautiful. And of course, the performance of each and every member of the cast and crew was phenomenal across both of performances on the 6th & 7th December.
As the director of the musical, it has been both an honour and a privilege to work with such a talented cast and a hardworking, supportive crew who were utterly vital in putting together this production.
I would like to thank everybody who came to see our production, and to those that were unable to make it, we very much hope to see you for the next Secondary School Production! The International School of Moscow’s Secondary School Productions are back, and we are here to stay.

A child’s youngest years are a jubilant journey of discovery, exploration and growth. The impact of the caring attention we provide during these youngest years will echo through the rest of their lives.
Did you know… a child’s brain is already 90-95% of its adult size before entering Primary school. They will develop a great deal yet, but the foundational structure has been set.
We were thrilled to hear from Elbina, one of our graduating Class of 2018, who was visiting Russia to spend time with her family over the New Year holiday.
Elbina, who graduated from ISM almost six years ago, has completed her Bachelor’s and Master’s degrees in Biology at the University of St Andrews, and is now midway through her PhD study in the field of medicine.
Elbina enthusiastically agreed to visit her old school to speak with our Sixth Form students, and share her expertise about what to expect from university life, how to get the best results in your degree, and those important next steps after graduation.
