On Wednesday 7th November, several S4 Performing Arts and Drama Team students traveled to Shalowan (Lantau) to participate in a different type of theatre experience. Literally ‘stuck on an island’ the students needed to help Icarus leave the island – a person sadly stuck on this island. We leaped with our imagination, traveled back in time and met various flying machine inventors such as Leonardo DaVinci and the Wright brothers and together helped them build a flying contraption to help Icarus get home.
Students getting the ferry from Tung Chung Ferry Pier to Shalowan. On our journey we can see the new Hong Kong – Zhu Hai – Macao Bridge and the new airport expansion underway. An adventure awaits us!
Leonardo DaVinci explains his invention of flight with the help of a student (Shi Chit Hei, Savio) and Icarus.
Actors breaking the forth wall and explaining to us what happens when we do not listen to our parents. Icarus had not listened to his father and was left on this island alone.
“Who are we here to help?” Lam Hin Ching had forgotten Icarus’ name and he was not happy.
Mission completed! We helped Icarus build his machine to fly home.
