Drama Team in rehearsal, Tsuen Wan City Hall
 Our drama crew at the Tsuen Wan City Hall | After being informed that ALL our actors have won Outstanding Actor Awards at this year's Hong Kong School Drama Festival, we were invited to perform in front of a live audience at Tsuen Wan Town Hall on 14 May 2017! Here's what some of the actors themselves thought about their experience in the limelight: |
Aidan Hsu 6E:
"We were all surprised and thrilled at the same time to hear that we had been selected to perform. As the performance date got closer and closer, all of us put in a lot of time and effort with extra practice sessions, as we wanted our performance to be perfect. Mr Ching constantly encouraged us and gave us guidance on how we could improve. On the performance date, we were all extremely nervous, but as we performed and heard the enjoyment of the audience, we were all relaxed and enjoyed the moments being on the stage. We would like to thank Mr Ching and all the teachers as we could not have done it without their encouragement and support..."
Monet Lam 5E:
"After finishing the performance, I felt really excited. I think that the performance that we did was really perfect, and I am very satisfied with my performance. I think that it is the best performance and the best try we've ever had..."
Mike Wong 6E:
"The Hong Kong Drama Festival performance on Mother’s Day was absolutely amazing, and also a perfect gift for my mum! I’ve learnt sooooo much through this incredible experience! With the guidance of our professional stage directors, we learnt a lot about what happens behind-the-scenes in a drama act. It opened a whole new page in my drama ‘career’..."

Overall, the drama team wouldn't have worked without the tireless help from all those involved. Firstly, a HUGE thanks must go to Miss Kwok and TA Dennis Ying for their work in filling in all the gaps that I made along the way (and there were A LOT of them). Our performance would have been a complete mess without you being there for the team! To the parents of our actors: you were all very accommodating! You allowed your sons to be a part of this "crazy" group in the first place; you were flexible with rehearsal dates; you offered your help on the weekend of the public performance; and you even put aside your prior Mother's Day plans to bring your son to the public performance! (Mums: I hope you enjoyed your Mother’s Day gift!)
