ISTA London
Excellent ICS Ambassadors!! That's the only way to describe our 8 International School Theatre Association participants in London last week at the TASIS School ISTA Festival: Undani Chanda, Laura Mahr, Tiphanie Laney, Ezana Girmai, Bannet Muhoozi, Satya Zomer, Marwa Ateem and Olivia Fagan. Following the theme of audience, our high school students ran, jumped, danced and sang their way through 4 long days of drama, music, mime, stage combat and singing to reach their final performance in front of a packed audience at TASIS. beginning at 7.30 / 8am every day and working till 8 or 9pm, not once did our young thespians show signs of flagging or fatigue! Coupled with their drama ensemble work, workshops and site specific theatre activities, they also managed to fit in a full day tour of London, a backstage tour of the National Theatre, a matinee performance of Terry Pratchett's Nation televised live to 120 countries and a whirlwind visit to Shakespeare's Globe Theatre. Go ISTA Eagles!
