“All the world’s a stage and most of us are desperately unrehearsedâ€
On the 2nd of February, 2019 St. Jude’s School continued with its tradition of organising One Act Plays as an Inter House Competition to enhance knowledge, dramatic skills and promote acting ability amongst the students.
The plays were enacted featuring the mythological stories from the famous, Amar Chitra Katha.
The acting skills of the students generated a thunderous applause from the audience. The quality of plays selected and the execution of each play by the four houses was appreciated by all. The bright and vibrant costumes, dialogues and acting enthralled each one of us.
Lyons House first presented the story of ‘Satyavaan and Savitri’. This was followed by Howard House who enacted the story of ‘Akbar and Birbal’, Birbal’s boundless wit astounded one and all.
Khanna House then showcased their colourful play ‘Ganga’ and last but not the least was Gardner House who enacted an episode of ‘Tenali Raman’.
The performances were judged by our Principal Mrs. V.R. Gardner and Vice Principal Ms. M. Gardner. The judges were highly impressed with the quality of plays enacted. Our Principal appreciated the efforts of the students, and gave valuable tips on the use of stage, props and movements of the cast on stage to generate a greater impact.
The results were as follows:
Gardner House - First Position
Lyons House - Second Position
Khanna House - Third Position
Howard House - Fourth Position
Well Done Students and Teachers.
