Directed by award winning director Christina Sergeant, and with a cast and crew of both students and teachers of the college, NYJC’s Drama Night 2007 is a production not to be missed.

A special feature of our production will be a 30min question and answer session with Ms Sergeant after the performance. This is a great opportunity for the audience to find out more about the staging and interpretation of the text from the director herself. Knowing that Othello is being offered by a number of school in the 'A’ Level Examinations, we are extending an invitation to you to join us at Drama Night 2007.

The performance details are as follows:

Dates/Times : Friday, 11 May, 7pm
Saturday, 12 May, 2.30pm and 7pm

Duration : 2 hours approximately (excluding dialogue with director)

Venue : Nanyang Junior College, LT 2

Ticket Price : $8

For more information, please do not hesitate to contact either Miss Melissa Kwok (63805130) or Mr Gerald Chong (63805131). We would appreciate it if you could confirm your bookings with us by Wednesday, 11 April 2007 through the email address: chong_choon_beng_gerald@moe.edu.sg. Please note that seats are limited, and tickets will be allotted on a first-come-first-served basis.

Stay tuned for details on Ms Chua's make-up classes.

By the way, should some of you hit below a certain grade for your common test, or if your common test answers show proof of your lack of knowledge, you are definitely spending more time with me, work-Nazi, next term and for the rest of the year.

Looking at Drama (or 'Purple Vomit' is also applicable to Murder)

I was looking through the document bank on KM and there's a lecture on the elements of drama in there that you might like to revisit. Any study of drama (including Duchess) would encompass those elements, so make sure you revise with them in mind.
