The children of St Francis Catholic Primary School in South Ascot ended their time at the school by braving the arch through to a cursed forest, challenging various witches and evil grogs, rescuing the Merestone and restoring peace and tranquility to the land.
The year six children premiered their production of “Hogbane’s Doom” at the Rose Theatre, St Mary’s School, and were very excited at their transformation into magical creatures, evil witches dancing animals.
Class teacher and director Lindsey Waller said, “The children have really risen to the challenge of this complex fantasy production. Their confidence has grown and will stand them in good stead as they make the transition to secondary school in September.”
The production benefited greatly from the participation of St Mary’s School, who kindly lent their theatre for the performance. “We’re very grateful to the backstage crew of the Rose Theatre, who pulled out all the stops to create a fantastic set for our use.
