Here's a report on Drama Club by Courtney Mullen

Here at Grangetown Yr5 and Yr6 are having a drama club with Mrs Davies on a Monday at 3.20. They will be taking part in a performance of Grease in front of the school.

Mrs Davies is a professional singer and actor and will teach the children how to act and sing right. Drama club is a club were the children can express their talent here at Grangetown.

Here's another report, from Kelsey and Lauren

Every Monday night and Tuesday morning the  Grease cast from years 5 and 6 go to drama with Miss Davies to practice for Grease. It is going great at drama, we have finished practising nearly all of the scenes.

Courtney Mullen (Y6) said: “I really like drama and I am so so happy I am Sandy. I think drama is definitely the thing for me!“ Beth Haley (Y6) added: “I like Marty because she is just like me!!!!!! Also, I like Jordan’s Character Patty Simcox because it’s just like her!!!”

Every one in drama likes it so far and they are really enjoying it. They like the characters who they are playing and are working hard to learn all of their lines. The choir is also working hard to learn the songs so that they can take part in the musical also.

Grease the musical will take place on Monday 5th July 2010 at 6.30pm in the hall of Grangetown Primary School. Tickets will be on sale after half term from the school office. So roll up, roll up before they all go!!!
