School Production – ‘This Changes Everything’

This year’s school production of This Changes Everything by Joel Horwood was a powerful and assured performance that showcased the depth of talent across Years 7–13. Tackling a complex and thought-provoking story, the cast approached the material with impressive maturity, energy and gusto, sustaining a palpable sense of tension that kept the audience captivated throughout.

The young cast moved confidently around the traverse stage, using the space to heighten the drama and draw the audience into the heart of the action. The production balanced moments of intensity, thoughtful nuance and humour, allowing the themes of the play to resonate clearly and powerfully. The cast’s strong vocal skills were particularly striking — lines were delivered with clarity, intention and emotional weight, with students demonstrating a strong grasp of both character and message – there were too many outstanding performances to mention them all!
