🎭 ¡Hola! Spanish Theatre Drama Coming to Alder! ðŸ‡ªðŸ‡¸

We're thrilled to welcome the Onatti Theatre Company to school on Monday 8 June for a hilarious and interactive performance of "Un Ensayo Desastroso" (A Disastrous Rehearsal).

📖 The Story: In a small-town theatre in Spain, auditions are underway for Romeo y Julieta. Actress Verónica is NOT happy about missing out on the lead role! Meanwhile, super-keen stage manager Cassy is trying to keep the chaos under control… though she secretly dreams of being centre stage herself.

When the rest of the Spanish cast goes missing, Cassy enlists help from the audience - yes, that means our students! They'll be encouraged to deliver lines, play characters, and even make sound effects in this wildly funny rehearsal full of flubbed lines, forgotten props, and theatrical meltdowns.

Will Verónica share the spotlight? Will Cassy get her big moment? Can our students save the show? ðŸŽ¬

Why it's brilliant for learning:ʉϬ See Spanish used in real-life situations
✨ Challenge listening skills in a fun, interactive way
✨ Get inspired about Spanish language and culture

📅 When: Morning of Monday 8 June 2026
👥 Who: Years 8 & 10 Spanish students
💷 Cost: £3 voluntary donation via ParentPay

Please note: If we don't receive enough voluntary contributions, the performance won't be able to go ahead.

Let's bring Spanish to life! 🌟
