PolyToday: Seventh grade showcase

Poly's seventh-graders presented a play and dance performance this week that was the culmination of their Theatre and Dance classes. The play, "Rules of Comedy," is a very complicated and hilarious play in which the rules of comedy are applied to the final scene of "Hamlet." The production was a challenge for the tech crew and the actors, who had to manage physical comedy and rapid-fire shifts, but it was a great experience for all involved. In Dance this semester, students improved their dance techniques and learned group dances in the styles of contemporary and jazz. Student choreography resulted in small group pieces in the styles of lyrical, hip hop, and contemporary. See a slideshow from the dress rehearsal.
