We Had the Time of Our Lives!

Last week Trinity Catholic College presented the musical “Back to the 80s” and two of the four evening performances were completely sold out which was amazing!
A massive thank you to everyone - students, staff, parents, and other adult volunteers - who contributed to this show in some way and helped make it such a resounding success. We had an awesome cast, crew, band, and production team who all gave so much of their time, energy, and expertise to make this such a fun and enjoyable show.
Our sincere thanks to the following businesses and organisations that supported the musical by donating goods or services, providing assistance/discounts, or lending us items:
Bramwell Scaffolding
Core Development
Gravity Events
Fairies & Wizards
Musical Theatre Dunedin
Fire Station Community Theatre
Thank you also to our audiences for journeying back in time with us. Your support, enthusiasm, and enjoyment made all the hard work so totally worthwhile. We hope that the trip “Back to the 80s” brought back lots of fond memories (if you’re old enough to remember the 80s) or, if you’re a bit younger, that you had fun experiencing some of the songs and fashion of this iconic era.
Finally, I would like to acknowledge all the students who took part in “Back to the 80s” in some way (both on and off the stage) - and there were over 100 of them! What an incredible group of rangatahi. Thank you for sharing your talents and skills with us all, thank you for looking out for and supporting one another, and thank you for working together to achieve an awesome production. I hope lots of you get involved with the musical again next year.
Cowabunga, dudes!
