  • Peter Pan Goes Wrong’ - the Cambridge Arts Theatre, Cambridge – Tuesday 12Th November 2019 - Departing School: 6Pm, Approximate Return Time: 10.45Pm
    SCO/SCK 20th June 2019 Dear Parents and Carers, Re: ‘Peter Pan Goes Wrong’ - The Cambridge Arts Theatre, Cambridge – Tuesday 12th November 2019 - Departing School: 6pm, Approximate Return Time: 10.45pm We have secured 65 tickets for an evening performance for Year 10 and 11 Drama GCSE students to see ‘Peter Pan Goes Wrong’ on Tuesday 12th November 2019. Seeing live theatre is a mandatory part of the course which forms part of the written exam. Students need to see a wide range of theatre in order to enable them to fully prepare them for their exam. We have had to book early as this is a sell-out show that is on tour from the renowned Mischief Theatre Company, and due to the popularity of this show, we have not been able to secure enough tickets for the whole cohort. Therefore, this trip will be on a ‘first come, first served’ basis, with priority given to next year’s Year 11 students. The cost of the ticket, including transport to and from the theatre, will be £45, which is a discounted rate for a group booking. If you would like to contact the school to discuss a payment plan or have a concern about finances then please contact the school office, as we may be able to offer assistance. Please note, however, that if you have any outstanding monies following attendance at previous performances, then your child will not be able to attend this one until the outstanding payment has been made. You will need to make arrangements to pick your child up from the school on our return, which will be at approximately 10.45pm.

We are thrilled that the Cornley University Drama Society is performing in the USA. We can only apologise to those involved in the production of Equus originally scheduled for this week, which due to a clerical error, is now being performed in the Cornley University Gymnasium. We hope there are no hard feelings and we’ve left the vaulting horse out for you. The question everyone at Cornley has been asking is: are we ready for a venue of this size? The answer is “yes.” The cast and I rehearsed for weeks using only the best acting teachings to inspire us. We read that Sanford Meisner once said, “Acting is behaving truthfully,” so we immediately changed all the names in the play to our own names and cut the murder, the manor house setting and any other element that we hadn’t personally experienced.

  • April Newsletter Final Corrected
    The Rattigan The Newsletter of The Terence Rattigan Society April 2017 Issue No. 20 Version DAVID SUCHET - OUR NEW PRESIDENT Members will be delighted to learn that, following the death of our inaugural President, Princess Galitzine, David Suchet has accepted our invitation to become our President. David has been a supportive Vice-President since the launch in the centenary year when he planted a commemorative tree in the garden of the Actors’ Church, Covent Garden, where Sir Terence Rattigan CBE has a plaque on the north wall above that of Sir Noël Coward. As members may recall, this event began as a theatrical occasion in the church when David gave the tribute, written by his fellow Vice-President, Geoffrey Wansell. David spoke again, after planting the tree and this turned out to be an amusing, as well as moving, occasion. He began his speech by talking about trees “an extraordinary piece of nature and symbolic of the life of a human being… when suddenly the church bells rang out the TWELVE NOON CHIMES. David had to pause, but in true music hall tradition he included the interruption into his words. “It never happens on stage….Talk amongst yourselves” and when the chimes had stopped, he said “I think this is Terry’s joke, actually. Timing is everything”. He then continued his intended speech. He made his third speech of the day in the Irving Room at The Garrick Club, after of Sir Terence and his work. I have assured David that, as receiving his Vice-Presidential scroll, drawing attention to President, he will not be asked to perform any additional the way in which Rattigan’s plays have a quality duties, but to have his support and his name on our reminiscent of musical composition.
