"School can be tough for anyone, especially if you sing old rock songs to yourself and get picked on! Meet Jack and his classmates as they take you on a trip of rock 'n' roll through the decades.
Meet Jack's teacher Mr. Parsley, and his love of 'old school' music, and his disdain for modern technology. Will Jack get bullied at the school disco or will he be brave enough to steal the show?"

"Where Are You
Saint Patrick?"
Christian Schools - 100 mins
"Come with us on a journey back to Celtic Ireland and Roman Britain. Re-discover the epic life and transformation of Saint Patrick from boy to man, riches to rags, freedom to slavery, darkness to God's light.
Join our family as they hastily prepare for a St. Patrick's Day celebration. They have the banner, the balloons, the food and drink...but something is missing."

Short Play:
‘Easter Mystery Passion Play’ 40 mins.
​
"Re-discover the real meaning of Easter through the beautiful songs and moving bible scenes. We know there is more to life than the busy, material world we live in, so take a closer look at what life's real meaning is all about.
Witness the example of Jesus, who is the King of Kings yet lived a humble life; was innocent, but treated as a criminal; all powerful, yet suffered humiliation and death to save us from sin.
Feel the love and passion of Jesus Christ, as He willingly enters Jerusalem in His last week, is betrayed, mocked and sentenced to death. Through Jesus' death and resurrection, we understand God's eternal love for us, sending us His only son, to 'overcome the world'.
This play is not just for Easter, it brings to life the greatest 'Good News' story ever told. Through the powerful balance of narration, drama, dance and song, we learn that death is not the end, if we follow God's laws and are faithful. Through Jesus's promise of eternal life, we learn to be joyful, spread the gospel, and live by His timeless example of sacrifice, forgiveness and love."
"I am the resurrection and the life, he who believes in me, though he dies, shall live."
