 Frantic Assembly Company Drama Incursion

Last week, the Year 11 and 12 Drama classes were very excited to attend a private workshop with the Frantic Assembly company. This award-winning, UK-based physical theatre group are briefly visiting the country, and Pulteney is very lucky to be the only school in South Australia that Frantic are working with. In an intense 2-hour workshop, students devised original theatre, learned how to perform lifts, and continued to develop themselves as practising artists. Thank you so much to Sean and Simon from the company for sharing their energy and expertise.
