Face Me Previous Performances
2017’s performance was called ‘Torgle Box – How do you view us?’ It is based on real life and fictional stories that the students felt passionate enough to share with an audience. We looked in detail at three main areas this year; ‘Undateables first dates’, ‘Question Time’ and ‘Born to be Great.’ We used a mixture of live pieces, recorded videography and dance to tell our stories.
