The Seven Stages of Grieving

On Tuesday, Years 9, 10 and 11 Elective Drama students went to the Sydney Opera House to see Enoch and Mailman’s play, The 7 Stages of Grieving. The play explored Aboriginal history, the colonisation of Australia, and how the Aboriginals were treated. Chenoa Deemal’s portrayal of the Aboriginal woman was phenomenal, as she herself has an Aboriginal background. All Year 9 Elective Drama students study the play this term and explore the techniques throughout the play. Overall, the play was an eye-opening experience which we all enjoyed and recommend to others. Thank you Ms Bauer and Mr Peacock for taking us on this amazing excursion.
