Disney’s Beauty and the Beast

This week has seen the culmination of 7 months of hard work from students and staff with three wonderful performances of Beauty and the Beast.

The students have entertained over 1000 audience members in three sold out shows during the week with their beautiful singing, skillful playing, talented acting, and enthusiastic dancing. The talk of the school has been which character was their favourite, and how exactly did we do that transformation scene?

Both the Drama and Music Departments couldn't be prouder of our students, who have brought this classic fairytale to life on our stage. Every member of our cast has shone brightly in this production. Our leads have once again proven what talent we have at BIS HCMC, with students from year 8 -13 bravely taking on the challenge of solo performances.

We are also hugely grateful to those staff and parents who have supported us from the beginning. They have been instrumental with building the set and creating the costumes, but also in sending us the occasional email to let us know how much this experience means to the students and the community. These contributions however, big or small, are crucially important and make all of the hard work seem less daunting.

So a huge thank you to all of our BIS HCMC Community, without you, none of this would be possible.

If you didn’t get to see our extravaganza this year, fear not, as we will be releasing a DVD of the performance shortly after the Easter break.
