Beauty and the Beast
Beauty and the Beast was a truly memorable
experience.
The show played to three sell out audiences and was a
showcase of the wonderful talent at the College. For
me it was a wonderful moment to see how far Loyola
has come, as I was lucky enough to be involved in the
first few musicals as a student when they recommenced
in 1995. Fifteen musicals later, Loyola College is now
at the forefront of musical theatre amongst schools in
Victoria.
Beauty and the Beast, a Disney Classic was enjoyed by
the old and young alike with much positive feedback.
It was also great to see many former Loyola production
students attending the night.
Congratulations to all the staff and students involved.

Alice in Wonderland
An enthusiastic audience was transported into a world
of color and magic as they entered Wonderland! In
Loyola College’s Junior Musical, over one hundred Year
7 and 8 students danced, sang and acted in ‘Disney’s
Alice in Wonderland Junior.’ Behind the scenes, our
cast was supported by a very enthusiastic backstage
crew and many talented senior students who assisted
with makeup, hair and encouraged our junior students.
A highlight of the show was certainly the costumes, all
sourced or made by our very gifted and energetic parent
Robin Carducci. We would like to thank the Loyola
College Community for their support, especially FOPA
and the LPFA. ‘Alice in Wonderland’ was an enjoyable
A Midsummer Night’s Dream
After four months intensive rehearsals the curtain rose
on the 2010 College Dramatic Production during May for
four performances. Thirty four students were involved
in “A Midsummer Night’s Dream” and audiences were
treated to a wonderful production.
Undoubtedly one of the highlights of this production
was the beautiful dancing superbly choreographed by Ms
Alison Cybula. Special thanks are due to Ms Helen Miller
and Mrs Robin Carducci who constructed the beautiful
costumes worn by the fairies and Titania and also to
the Loyola Parents and Friends Association (LPFA) for
their generous financial support again this year
Finally heartfelt thanks to the parents of all cast and
crew for their ongoing support over the last four months
leading up to production. Paul Ryan

and beneficial experience for our cast and crew and we
hope that they continue to share their talents with the
Loyola Community in the years to come.
