Musicals

Quaker Hill High School produces an annual cabaret or musical to showcase the many talents of the students. In 2010, the show was based on Gilbert and Sullivan’s “The Mikado”. Literally hundreds of hours of planning and preparation by Ms Franco (Director) and Ms Lachevre (Producer) ensure the success of the annual show. Various other teachers and, of course the students throw themselves into making theses productions such a successful and rich experience for all involved. It was, however, fairly modernised compared to the original "The Mikado," by adding new characters, updating the humour and adding various pop-culture references.

Previous productions include; Relationships: A Snapshot In Time, Grease, Back To The Eighties and Who The Heck Is Shakespeare. However, these are a few as musicals in QHHS were also made and produced from halfway through the nineties and in the early 2000s.
