2016 Production Announcement

It's that time of year again. Preparations for the 2016 Holy Cross College Production are in full swing. We are delighted to announce that the production for 2016 will be 'The Happiest Days of Your Life' by John Dighton. 

Set in post WWII England, ’The Happiest Days of Your Life’ is a uproarious comedic farce which portrays the hilarious events which unfold when all-girls school St Swithan's is billeted with all-boys school Hillary Hall. This causes confusion and utter chaos, especially when it comes to hiding it from the parents. So much so that the male teachers end up in dresses at one point in an effort to cover up the fact that their school now has 'females'. It is a hilarious battle of the sexes.

The production in 2016 will be of a considerably smaller scale than the epic undertaking that was the hugely successful 'The Lion, The Witch and the Wardrobe' in 2015. We are aiming to undertake a larger scale production every second year. 'Happiest Days' will see a cast of only 13 and a select Senior School crew joining the Core Production Staff Team. We are delighted to welcome Miss Jackie Collender and Miss Edel Maher to the Production Team in 2016.

We are looking forward to what is set to be a fantastic production with a lot of laughs and some great moments for students and staff alike.
