BSD Lower Primary Performance: Robin and the Sherwood Hoodies

On January 31 and February 1, lower primary students at British School Dhahran participated in a fun and energetic performance, Robin and the Sherwood Hoodies.

Written by Craig Hawes, a leading composer of musicals for children, with thousands of young children performing his smash-hits around the world, the musical comedy featured familiar characters Robin Hood, Maid Marion and the Sheriff of Nottingham and a witty script with catchy, show-stopping songs that was sprinkled with shocks, surprises and plenty of crazy characters.  
Our talented primary students held two performances, one for the primary school and another for family and friends.  Auditions and rehearsals began in November 2023, and 122 students practiced their songs during music and singing class. Homeroom teachers prepared each scene, guiding students through the dialogue, and students continued to work hard, practice and learn their lines during winter break as well.

Congratulations to our young performers for a wonderfully entertaining show, and thanks to Mr Barry Maher for his direction, Mr Simon Horsey for music production, Ms Hajer Ben Ali for leading props and set design, our classroom teachers that practiced dialogue and scenes with lead characters and all our teacher assistants that helped with costumes and set design.
