Like this page to receive updates on Springwood High School Theatre Company's upcoming productions.
Springwood High School has its own theatre company. In operation since 1989 and with over 50 full scale productions to its name, the company seeks to provide Drama students with a professional industry based model of theatre making. The company operates as part of the elective Drama program in the school.
Each year the company produces a season of plays for audiences in its own purpose built intimate performance space, the Hall Stage Theatre. Students are introduced to the company in Year 9 and will have staged a minimum of two major productions by graduation in Year 12.
Through the company students learn about all aspects of the dramatic process. Many graduates return to continue their association with the company through the affiliated graduate company "Iceland Productions" which contributes a play to the annual season. Graduates of the company have also gone on to make successful careers in the industry as actors, writers, directors, designers, technicians and film makers.
The work of the company is widely renowned in the local community and beyond. In recent years it has been the recipient of many accolades including the highly prestigious Director General's Award for creative excellence.
