I wish I lived around Dandenong.

I don't think you really want to..

[excal]

I live in the Dandenong area...it's really not that bad.

It's Noble Park that used to be nasty in recent times. Oh, and Dandenong South / Doveton still is fairly average. And guess who's moving to Noble Park shortly..

Hey guys!

Yesterday was opening night and it went really well!!! All the reviews I've heard so far have been excellent. Tonight is going to be tiring because we did two shows last night and didn't get much sleep. Saturday and Friday are really heavily booked which is exciting =)

I personally got some really good comments from people and it was weird people from the audience were walking past me later around the theatre and we're like OMG thats ZEEK!!! I have fans hahah

If anyone goes/has gone let me know =)

Best be off

A Musical to be remembered
7th August 2008 11:00:21 AM

STANDING ovations, curtain calls and raucous laughter in a world-class theatre.

Secondary school students from St John’s Regional College experienced all of that after last week’s outstanding performances of Disney’s High School Musical at the Dandenong Drum Theatre.

As many as 70 students involved themselves in acting, backstage, lighting, costumes and make-up, sacrificing Sundays and lunchtimes for the past 20 weeks to ensure that last week’s four performances of the hit musical left audiences gobsmacked by their quality.

High School Musical is based in the United States, where Troy, captain of the school basketball team, falls in love with singing after performing a duet with a girl named Gabriella.

Teacher Lee Geraghty directed the production, while art teacher Anne Aldis managed the stage.

Ms Aldis said the students had an ‘absolute ball’ working on the production, and that it all came together on opening night as they had wished.

“You always ask yourself what’s the best thing you remember about high school and the answer is never something in the classroom – it’s always extracurricular,” Ms Aldis said.

“Students will remember this forever.”

Drum Theatre technicians were on hand to help students learn about the stage production process.

All the hard work was worth it according to Ms Aldis, with audiences – including primary school students – loving every moment of the production.
