Copperfield College is booking out the Bowery Theatre for a rendition of the classic production High School Musical.

For two nights on Thursday, August 8, and Friday, August 9, the show will be played from 6pm to 8.30pm.

Students from years 7 to 12 from across the college’s Sydenham, Kings Park, and Delahey campuses are part of the show on and off the stage.

The soundtrack will also be performed by Copperfield College’s band.

Copperfield College performing arts leader Taylor Van Orsouw said the students have worked extremely hard and can’t wait to put on a show next month.

“We started rehearsals in February and have worked the whole time since, everyone is really excited to get it on stage,” she said.

“We rehearse every Wednesday, with all three campuses meeting up in Sydenham.

“The backstage crew has put everything together, sourcing everything and creating projected backgrounds.”

Copperfield College is excited to be partnering with Creative Brimbank to welcome the production into St Alban’s Bowery Theatre, with tickets priced at $20 and family packages also available.

“Step into the world of East High as our talented students bring the beloved Disney classic High School Musical to life on stage! Experience the drama, the music, and the excitement as Troy, Gabriella, Sharpay, and the rest of the Wildcats navigate the ups and downs of high school life,” the school said online.

“With dazzling choreography, catchy songs, and a heart-warming story about friendship, love, and following your dreams, this production promises to be a spectacular event for all ages.”
