The English Drama Group

 

Why English drama? It´s interesting, it´s different and it´s FUN!

We are 20 students from year 6 to 13 and our director is English teacher Mrs. Glinka . We meet in our free time once a week and when the performance is near, we sometimes rehearse at the weekend or in the evening, too. We try to do everything ourselves, which is a lot more than learning text and playing scenes: designing the stage, organising costumes, hair, make-up and props, operating the lights, promoting our play, filming the show etc. By the way: We are always interested in new talent, so come and join the English Drama Group!

New play 2010

London, 1888. Young women were not safe in London's streets anymore. A serial killer murdered at least five prostitutes in a very brutal way: He cut their throats and mutilated them terribly. Who was this murderer that got the pseudonym "Jack the Ripper"? His identity has never been revealed.
In the play Jack the Ripper by Joe Dickinson, many people try to find the murderer: a competent doctor, a curious servant, a clever policeman, a feminist lady, a rich aristocrat, a white witch and her companion and, of course, new police commissioner of London. But their hunt for Jack the Ripper is where the mystery begins, because any one of them could be Jack! Before you find out there will be lots more blood in the streets of London...
