Year 11 Play - Cosi

Let our talented group of Yr 11 Students draw you into a burnt-out old theatre adjoining the grounds of a mental hospital in the 1970s.

Corralled by the manic-depressive, endearing & insufferable Roy, & encouraged by social worker Justin, the eccentric group of patients are attempting to stage a production of Mozart’s opera, Cosi fan Tutte. Fresh out of university & somewhat adrift, Lewis has agreed to direct the amateur production, but between the impossibly elaborate artistic vision of Roy, the laborious obsessive compulsion of Ruth, the escapist tendencies of pyromaniac Doug & the small hurdle that no one can sing, Lewis has his work cut out for him.

Against a backdrop of political activism during the Vietnam War, Lewis begins to realise what truly matters to him, as he works outside the box to get this unusual production off the ground. The more time he spends with these patients, the more he realises they understand something his friends on the outside don’t.
