Awe-ful Christmas panto lands on cover of FE Week
Once again, people are noticing Lewisham College. Last month,
the cover FE Week newspaper featured the College's Christmas panto,
The Awe-Ful Tale of Cinderella. The satire of growing up
in London was a hit as all six shows were sellouts.
Drama
tutor Karla Ptacek was pleased with the production. ""It teaches
our students about a great British tradition: political satire for
all ages. The most important thing to remember is that the majority
of our actors are first year students who have barely been here for
12 weeks. They've got to sing, act, dance and have the right comic
timing. To pull that off is an incredible accomplishment and the
audience are really loving it. We perform these for the community
and our local schools, and they come every year and get to partake
in a Christmas celebration."
