School Show :
Copacabana
First class, professional and most definitely amazing were the words used to
described Bannockburn High School’s excellent production of ‘Copacabana’.
The unforgettable songs, fun lyrics, music and wonderful dancing, expertly
performed by a highly talented cast of pupils from S1 – S6, had the audience
captivated from beginning to end.
The minimalist set and fabulous costumes, added extra sparkle to an already
glittering evening. Daniel Mooney, perfect in his role as Stephen/Tony, gave
an outstanding performance as did Joanna McConnachie as Samantha/Lola.
Fraser Tait added humour in his role as Sam Silver as did Amber Howland as
Gladys Murphy. Callum Frickleton and Kirsten Reekie impressed the audience
as the evil Rico Castelli and his long suffering partner Conchita Alvarez.
The talent, effort and teamwork of cast and crew were evident for all to see
on the night. Every member of the team should be commended for treating the
audience to a night to remember, a powerful production which left us
uplifted and hardly able to wait for the forthcoming Christmas show, which
will be announced by the end of term.
