Last week, students from Carisbrooke College delighted packed audiences with their own imaginative production of A Christmas Carol. The 52-strong cast performed an impressive seven shows across just three days, entertaining well over 1,200 audience members, including 400 children from local primary schools.

This year’s production was staged in traverse, with the audience seated on both sides of the stage. The students embraced this challenge with confidence and professionalism, delivering truly fantastic performances throughout. Every cast member played their role with commitment and skill, coming together to create a memorable and engaging piece of storytelling.

A special mention must go to our wonderful Year 11 students, who took to the stage for their final performance at Carisbrooke College: Annelise, Denna, Evie, Freddie, Casey, Toby, Megan, Holly, Fritz, and River. Take a bow—and thank you for everything you have contributed to drama at Carisbrooke. You will be greatly missed.
