The Phantom Tollbooth

January 6, 2016

The Phantom Tollbooth

4:10 p.m Tech and Dress Rehearsal for The Phantom Tollbooth
During one scene in the show several performers used a phone to provide individual light. Clever, effective and captivating.

The Acting 11/12 class at Gulf Islands Secondary presents its sharp-witted-end-of-semester show tonight (Wednesday) through Friday at ArtSpring Theatre, 7:30 pm. Tickets are $10.

Here’s the press release:

GISS DRAMA PRESENTS THE PHANTOM TOLLBOOTH

Embark on a magical adventure with The Phantom Tollbooth, adapted for the stage by Gulf Islands Secondary School grades 11/12 acting students.

The Phantom Tollbooth is a story about a boy named Milo, who can never work out what to do with himself. One day, a magical tollbooth suddenly appears in his bedroom and transports him into a land much different from his own. There he meets a cast of quirky characters such as the Whether Man, the Humbug, the Dodecahedron, King Azaz, and the Mathemagician. Milo is accompanied by his trusty automobile and dog named Tock as he goes on a journey to rescue two Princesses and return peace to the Kingdom of Knowledge.

Butterfly!

June 4, 2015

Rising Music Star at Butterfly

Time to fly for this GISS Music and GISPA student at Butterfly, the Gulf Islands Secondary School end-of-semester music performance at ArtSpring on Salt Spring Island.

Instructor Bruce Smith helps students perform this kind of metamorphosis every year. It’s fascinating to see who’s going to steal the show each semester. (Two unique shows actually, Bruce—a kindred type A personality—just has to get every detail right. And thus is driven to produce two somewhat different shows Wednesday and Thursday nights)

This photo was taken during  the dress rehearsal. Nice energy for a rehearsal; I just wish you could hear this photo!

p.s.
I look forward to another stunning performance from this young woman and her peers at GISPA’s Night Circus next week.

GISS Music Show Rehearsal

January 15, 2015

GISS Music Show rehearsal

The Gulf Islands Secondary Music Program was at ArtSpring Theatre yesterday for a tech/dress rehearsal.
The place was packed with talent. The student above has a most incredible voice and seems completely comfortable moving from instrument to instrument.

Tonight they’ll wow a sold out audience.
