Musicals
Redlands College has a long history of producing high quality musicals, with several past students going on to work as professional performers in the theatre.
Participating in the musical promotes artistic expression, teamwork and discipline that can be applied to all areas of study. Students who participate in the musical work with professionals from the arts industry to help develop their skills in all aspects of musical theatre. Through this, they build imagination, intellectual curiosity, collaborative skills and discipline.
Past Musicales include:
Seussical, Into the Woods, The Little Mermaid, My Fair Lady, The Sound of Music.
Plays
The Play unites middle and senior school students through active involvement in all aspects of play building: from design and technical roles through to acting skills. This unique learning opportunity promotes empathetic understanding and appreciation of others and communities. Teamwork and creative thinking are at the forefront of this project, which contributes to equipping students with highly transferable skills that encourage them to imagine future perspectives and possibilities.
Past Plays include:
Through the Looking Glass, Alice, Wendy and Peter, Midsummer Night’s Dream.
Fusion Arts Festival
The Fusion Arts Festival is an annual event that showcases the achievements of students in curricular and co-curricular arts from Prep to Year 12. The festival includes a gallery of student artworks; original student films, and live performances of Music, Dance and Drama. Fusion is a vibrant celebration of creativity, talent, and community
Theatresports
Theatresports is a dynamic fusion of improvised performance and competitive sport. In this spontaneous style of drama students are required to form teams of 4-6, entitle their team, learn a series of games and compete against rival teams by creating impromptu stories to unknown, MC given titles.
Every year, more than 100 teams from various schools across Brisbane and the Gold Coast compete in numerous knock-out style rounds until a winning team is chosen.

New places are available at the start of every year with auditions being held after school during term one. All are welcome to come along to our friendly and supportive audition workshops and give it a go.
