About Our Productions
Performing Arts at Ringwood Secondary College has been thriving for decades and continues to go from strength to strength today.
The school has a proud tradition of annual productions and is committed to staging a full scale, large chorus musical in August each year.
All students from Years 7 to 12 are invited to audition for the production each year, and the school usually accommodates about 80 students on stage. Lead roles are double cast where possible and each student will perform in an equal number of shows, increasing performance opportunities.
The orchestra is also comprised primarily of students, as are all other backstage and technical divisions in the production. Of course, a dedicated team of highly skilled and professional teachers set the direction and are supported by an amazingly dedicated team of parents and past students who graciously volunteer their time.
In December of each year, Ringwood Secondary College also stages a Junior Production. This is designed to provide further opportunities to students in Year 7 and 8 in particular, who may have been unable to make it into the cast of the main musical. The cast of about 70 produce a one act show, and pull it together in the last six weeks of the final term.
