Last Thursday, March 8th, all grade 7 students performed solo for the interdisciplinary unit Behind the Mask (Theatre, English Language & Literature and English Language Acquisition). Students were challenged to write original pieces from the perspective of a character from American Born Chinese or Iqbal, showing both the inner and outer personas of the characters. Students then rehearsed these original works in theatre class, using mask performance skills to convey the different sides of their chosen character’s personality.
Students performed to their peers, as well as parents and teachers. It was great to see so much support from the CISB community! All grade 7 students should be proud of the hard work they put into bringing these characters to life through mask. Well done!
