Continuing a decades-long tradition, Loretto Abbey Catholic Secondary School students travelled to Stratford for a day of theatre, taking in the Tony Award-winning musical Something Rotten!
Featuring Shakespeare as a character, the production was a departure from the Abbey's recent Shakespearean selections, which have included A Midsummer Night's Dream and Macbeth.
The musical was a hit with students, and even some who aren't typically fans of musicals were heard humming "I Hate Shakespeare" on the bus ride home! With next year's Stratford Festival season now announced, students are already looking forward to the possibility of seeing Chicago, Mary Poppins, or the highly anticipated Omelette… we mean, Hamlet!
A special thank you to Ms. Borg, Mr. Lopes, and Ms. Steele for organizing and supervising this memorable excursion.
