Amélie: A Highly Creative Staging of a Modern Movie Classic
Thursday 2 March 2023
GCSE Drama students staged a highly inventive and thoroughly heartwarming adaptation of the classic French movie Amélie on Monday 27 February.
Four groups of multi-rôleing performers took it in turns to tell the whimsical story of the young Parisienne dreamer who resolves to commit random and anonymous acts of kindness after discovering a child’s box of treasures in the floor of her apartment.
They were supported by a team of design students offering the full range of disciplines – lighting, set design, sound, costume and puppetry – who made full and innovative use of the Clarissa Farr Theatre’s superb facilities.

Formidable!
