Drama at IGS!
Every year the Primary School has the task of presenting the rich cultural traditions of the IGS on the stage; this year, that privilege goes to Class 2. And what a fantastic bunch of students they are for the job!
The first of two plays which will be presented by the Drama AG (Class 2) this semester is the story of a man named Cuội, who is believed to live on the moon. In honor of Cuội’s story, the Vietnamese people celebrate the Mid-Autumn Festival during which children carry colorful lanterns and parade through the villages, and families come together to enjoy mooncakes and admire the full moon, where it’s believed that Cuội resides.
This year, the story involves An, Phuong Nam who plays the part of Cuội, Jung, SeHyun as the Banyan Tree, and Albani, Lisa Ly as the princess. The rest of the class plays multiple roles in a drama full of exciting movement and passion. There are tigers and there’s spectacular magic!
It’s really worth watching.
The second drama planned for this semester is the traditional portrayal of the dramatic events in the life of Saint Martin of Tours. The whole class will, again, be involved in the portrayal of those famous events, which will be produced on 10 November this year as part of the school’s celebration of “Martinstag”.
It has been a privilege so far to work with such energetic and creative people. Don’t miss the show.
