OnSTAGE Selection
Congratulations to Morgan Gao who has been selected for OnSTAGE 2022. This is an incredible achievement and again highlights the calibre of Drama at St Clare’s as we have now had students selected for the program for the last five years!
Morgan’s piece, “Our World is far too Noisy” is a moving and powerful comment on the invasion of culture and focusses on a photographer that seeks to expose an Amazon tribe to the world. This piece is a credit to Morgan challenging himself to create an innovative theatre experience by integrating pre-recorded sound effects into his narrative and meticulously timing every movement to each audio cue.
Morgan was one of only four monologues selected, which again is recognition for his effort. We wish him all the best when he takes to the stage at the Seymour Centre in Sydney next February.
