Ernie’s Incredible Illucinations Year 7 and 8

Oliver Year 9 and 10

Date: Week 10 Time: 6pm Location: Studio 3

Date: Week 11 Time: 6pm Location: Berrick Hall

Ernie’s incredible imagination is alarming his parents. They go to the doctor in search of a cure. Once they’re there, they discover Ernie’s ‘illucinations’ are more powerful than they realised. Everything Ernie imagines – from secret agents to a boxing granny – becomes real. This comedy is brought alive by the acting talents within Year 7 and 8 and promises to have laughs and giggles galore!

Exploring the famous Dickensian classic, Oliver Twist, the production will be made up of an ensemble cast of years 9 and 10 who have also implemented their own ideas into the performance with an emphasis on physical theatre. In part, this production is in keeping with the Victorian era but with a modern twist, that explores the need to persevere in the face of adversity.

Battle of the Bands Year 7-13 Date: Tuesday 8 February Time: 7pm Location: Online Event Senior Bands battle it out once more to see who will be crowned 2022 champions.

This much anticipated competition will feature approximately 20 bands from Middle School, Upper School and Sixth Form as well as guest performances from some high-profile alumni. Details of how to access the event video will be shared on Tanglin's social media.

Asian Film Archive (TBC) Year 10-13 Film Students The Asian Film Archive which preserves, promotes, provides, and nurtures Asian Cinema has been busy curating a showreel of short films to share with our lucky film students in Term 2.

We are very much looking forward to hosting them and for our students to gain valuable insights into the cinematic heritage of their host country.
