地點：

佛山霍利斯 學校劇院

我們的學生已經為這次的音樂劇表演進行了好幾個月的準備工作，投入了無數小時的課外時間進行練習，致力于提升和完善他們的角色表演。最近，他們參加了非常多次的排練，塑造角色形象和磨練表演技巧，共同合作為觀眾們帶來一場精彩的演出。

本次音樂劇演出將在我校先進的黑匣子劇院進行，我們的學校劇院正是專門為這種專業演出活動而設計的。本次音樂劇表演的觀眾名額有限，我們鼓勵感興趣的家庭盡早報名。本音樂劇演出適合所有年齡段的觀眾觀看，歡迎邀請您的家人一起出席。

幕后花絮…

正所謂“臺上一分鐘，臺下十年功”，一部音樂劇的成功演出，離不開學生、老師及其他工作人員的點滴付出和刻苦努力。在這過程中，參演學生們互相合作，互相支持，建立和發展了強大的社區意識和團隊合作意識。從奇幻場地的布景到精美戲服的采購，老師和工作人員團隊十分忙碌，確保為演出順利進行而做好一切準備。

我們邀請了戲劇學科主任及創意藝術學科主任Savill先生給大家分享更多本次音樂劇的精彩幕后故事。

Mr Stuart Savill

Stuart Savill先生，戲劇學科主任，擁有超過20年任教經驗，曾擔任GCSE戲劇科目的高級考官和評分監督。

事實上，制作一部音樂劇是一個非常漫長的過程，過程中涉及的人員很多，這些在幕后默默付出的人也同樣值得我們的尊敬。首先，我們要確認選擇哪一部音樂劇，并向版權持有人申請表演許可。接著是設計、選擇和創建不同的音樂劇元素，例如布景、燈光、音樂和服裝等。

這次演出也離不開整個團隊成員的配合與支持，很感謝以下幾位老師和我一起指導學生的排練。例如，Ms Morgan幫忙排練舞蹈部分，并為Munchkins和Jitterbugs編排集體舞。

Mrs Chapman幫助學生練習臺詞，并糾正生詞讀音——因為這部戲劇是以20世紀50年代的美國為背景，劇中包含了很多比較陌生生僻的美國俚語表達。

Mr Hobourn正幫助獨唱的學生熟悉歌曲，Miss Jessica和Miss Kitty則確保預備部學生準時且安全地到達及離開排練現場，并協助排練期間相關的各項事務。

排練從學習音樂和通讀劇本開始，然后我們開始舞臺彩排，確定每個角色入場的時間以及舞臺站位。舞蹈和歌曲部分形成雛形后，演員們開始學習臺詞，塑造角色，場景布置也會隨之進行。

戲劇演出的成功不僅在于反復排練，幕后工作也非常重要。幕后團隊的成員正在敲定服裝和道具清單，而我也一直在忙于布置舞臺兩邊幕布后的候場區域。

演出服裝是這部音樂劇的亮點之一，學生們非常興奮地試穿他們的服裝。他們一直在嘗試不同的發型和化妝風格來完善自己的造型，目標是要給觀眾們留下深刻印象。每套服裝的細節都非常到位，我們相信這將會讓演出的整體效果增色不少。

我們還想分享的是，這部作品讓我們的學生有機會探索和發展他們的創造力、信心和想象力。《綠野仙蹤》的故事聚焦于友情、親情和如何面對挑戰等，這也是學生們的人生課題。對于許多學生來說，學校已成為他們的第二個家，一個結交新朋友的地方，一個每天都面臨新挑戰的地方——無論是學校生活中的挑戰，還是創作我們的第一部音樂劇所遇到的挑戰。

?

佛山霍利斯很高興能夠為學生們提供一個展示自己才華和成長的機會，幫助他們進一步發現自己的興趣和優勢，鼓勵他們突破自己的界限，探索新的領域。歡迎大家踴躍報名和出席觀看，讓這次演出成為每個人的難忘經歷。

LEH International School Foshan is proud to present the school’s first production of the timeless classic, "The Wizard of Oz" (Young Performer’s Edition). We would like to extend the invitation to all members of the school community and any interested families to join us on the 29th or 30th of March, to witness the extraordinary talents of our students from all year groups as they showcase their acting, singing, and dancing skills in this fantastic drama show.

Date & Time:

Session I: 17:00 – 18:30, 29 March

Session II: 18:00 – 19:30, 30 March

Venue:

LEH Foshan School Theatre

Our students have been preparing for this production for months, investing countless hours of practice, hard work, and dedication to perfect their performances. They have been rehearsing for hours on end, building their characters, honing their performance skills, and working together as a team to put on a spectacular show for you.

The production will take place in our school"s state-of-the-art Black Box Theatre, which has been specially designed for events like this. The seats are limited, and we encourage you to sign up early to secure your spot. The production is suitable for all ages, and we welcome the entire family to enjoy the show together.

Behind the Scenes…

Behind the scenes, there have been many highlights that have contributed to the excitement and anticipation of the big day. The students have been collaborating, supporting one another, and building a strong sense of community and teamwork. Teachers and staff have been working tirelessly to ensure that everything is ready for the show, from creating fantastic sets to sourcing the intricate costumes.

We invite Mr Savill, Head of Drama and Head of Creative Arts Faculty to share more stories behind the scenes.

Mr Stuart Savill

Mr Stuart Savill is the Head of Drama & Creative Arts Faculty, and Exams Officer with over 20 years of teaching experience. He has also held positions including Student Council Coordinator, and worked as a Senior Examiner and Senior Moderator for GCSE Drama.

Producing a musical is actually a very long process and involves a large number of people, many of whom the audience will never see. It begins with selecting the musical and applying to the rights holders for a performance license. Different production elements, such as, set, lighting, sound, and costumes have to be designed, chosen and created etc.

A production like this also requires the support of a whole team of people fulfilling a range of roles. In rehearsals, there are several staff members working with me to lead additional rehearsals and complete other tasks. For example, Ms Morgan, who has led the dance rehearsals and created the large group dances for the Munchkins and Jitterbugs.

Mrs Chapman has been helping students explore their lines and clarify words that they don’t know – our play is set in 1950s America and our script contains lots of unfamiliar and old-fashioned American slang words.

Mr Hobourn is helping soloists to learn their songs. And Miss Jessica and Miss Kitty are ensuring prep school students arrive and depart the rehearsals safely and on time, as well has helping with all the other little things that need to be done during a rehearsal.

Rehearsals begin with learning songs and reading through the script. Then we begin blocking, which is where we decide where each character will enter and exit, and where they will stand or move around on the stage. Dances and songs are gradually developed and improved, actors learn their lines and build their characters, and scenes start to take shape.

The rehearsals are not the only place where work is going on to prepare for the production. Outside of the rehearsals, there are more members of the production team finalising our costume and props list, and I have been spending time in the workshop building stage flats that will help create the wings (the hidden areas where the actors enter from) at the sides of our stage.

The costume is one of the highlights of this production, and the students have been very excited to try on their outfits. They have been experimenting with different hair and makeup styles to perfect their look, and it is sure to impress the audience. The attention to detail in each costume is impeccable, and we know that it will add to the overall spectacle of the show.

We would also like to share that this production has given our students a chance to explore and develop their creativity, confidence, and imagination. The story of Wizard of Oz focuses on the themes of friendship, home and facing a challenging journey. These themes are important aspects of life at LEHF, where for many students the school has become a second home away from home, a place where they make new friends, and a place where every day we face new challenges, whether it be within our school work, or the challenge of creating our first musical production.

LEH Foshan is delighted to be able to provide our students with such a fantastic opportunity to showcase their talents and grow as individuals. It has been a unique and valuable learning opportunity that has allowed them to discover their interests and strengths while encouraging them to push their boundaries and explore new territories. We hope to see you all at the show and make it an unforgettable experience for everyone involved.
