Rock of Ages: High School Edition

14 May 2025

After months of dedicated rehearsals and hard work, our students collaborated with St John’s College to deliver a spectacular production of “Rock of Ages: High School Edition.”

Rock of Ages: High School Edition

From perfectly cast characters to the exceptional backstage crew, students and teachers alike contributed to what can only be described as a resounding success.

The production sparkled with comic moments, well-executed freezes, and energetic antics that kept the atmosphere light and thoroughly entertaining. Lead performers displayed remarkable confidence in their roles, while the ensemble showcased extraordinary talent throughout. The entire “Rock of Ages” cast captivated audiences with their commanding stage presence and enthusiasm.

This successful production was brought to life under the skilled guidance of:

  • Director: Katie Hansen
  • Vocal Director: Alex Pelham-Waerea
  • Choreographer: Emelia Hawthorn
  • Producer: Hollie Doyle-Adams

 

What continues to deeply move me is the phenomenal sense of belonging that the teachers and staff have created for these students. It was evident in every moment – from the performances to the backstage camaraderie, and most powerfully, in the tears and hugs on closing night. The connection and care were unmistakable. – Cast member’s parent
