Lockers Park pupils delight audiences with ‘An Inspector Calls’

Posted on 11th Dec 2017 in School News, Drama

Junior pupils at Lockers Park Preparatory School in Hemel Hempstead have dazzled audiences with this year’s Christmas performance of ‘An Inspector Calls’.

Based on the comical Andrew Oxspring play where a school is thrown into panic when it receives a surprise visit from the school inspector, Lockers Park pupils embraced the satire and hilarity of the script.

Confident acting and singing, including some excellent solos, created a spectacular performance that held the audience spellbound throughout. With scenery hand-painted by Lockers Park parents and staff and eye-catching costumes, the production, involving all 51 children from Years 3 to 5, looked distinctly professional at times.

Headmaster Christopher Wilson commented: “Our Junior pupils really enjoyed getting to grips with this light-hearted play under the expert direction of Mrs Edmunds, Lockers Park’s Head of Drama. Their efforts made for a fantastic and engaging experience. I extend my thanks to each and every member of staff and pupil who helped ensure the play was a resounding success.”
