Friday saw the last night of a very successful run of Lord of the Flies. It deals with the themes of belonging, care for others or not, ego, vulnerability and honesty, the possibility of a return to the wild impulse versus rules and accountability; demanding a great deal of the cast who really had to go into themselves to do the script justice. And they did, producing an excellent version of a very challenging story. Congratulations to them all, not only for their dedication and long hours they put into rehearsing, but also for their mature and successful rendition. Congratulations too to Caroline Duck, the director, and all the staff who assisted.
A huge thank you too, to our audiences – parents and boys – who supported the show and made up the full houses on all three nights.
