Queensway were recently visited by M&M Productions, who presented a captivating performance of The Secret Garden for students.
Their adaptation brought the classic story to life with vibrant storytelling, expressive acting and immersive staging that kept the audience enthralled. The children thoroughly enjoyed themselves, cheering and laughing throughout.
Following the performance, the company conducted an interactive drama workshop, allowing students to explore key themes and characters through creative activities. The workshop encouraged participation, confidence-building and teamwork, giving students a hands-on experience of theatrical storytelling.
This experience helps widen children’s understanding of literature, performance and storytelling, enriching their appreciation of the arts. For Year 5 students, the performance also linked closely to their English learning, particularly in developing comprehension, character analysis and narrative structure. Engaging with a live adaptation of a classic novel helped reinforce their understanding of storytelling techniques and themes, making their learning more immersive and memorable.
