Words on the Edge: the high schools’ end-of-year celebration featuring theatre, an exhibition and music

The theatre and courtyard of Vittoria Junior hosted the secondary schools’ end-of-year party, centred around Parole in bilico — da un altro punto di vista (Words in the Balance — From Another Perspective), the final performance of the Arts Workshop.

The event kicked off with an exhibition: graphic works, photographs and audiovisual installations curated by the scenography group welcomed families and students into the courtyard.

The play was then performed. It all began with an anonymous message that appeared on the school wall: just a few words, but enough to upset the balance within a group of friends.

What begins as a discussion amongst friends gradually turns into a heated debate, marked by accusations, suspicions and shifting alliances. Inspired by Sidney Lumet’s - 12 Angry Men, the production explored the theme of bullying and its consequences through the work of the drama, acting and set design teams.

The evening rounded off with a toast and a DJ set. Not even a sudden downpour could stop the dancing – in true Vittoria style!
