Synopsis
Fourways High School presents
For the first time in Africa: The Broadway hit – The Wedding Singer - the musical comedy
It’s 1985 and rock-star wannabe Robbie Hart is New Jersey's favorite wedding singer. He’s the life of the party - until his own fiancée leaves him at the altar. Shot through the heart, Robbie makes every wedding as disastrous as his own. Enter Julia, a winsome waitress who wins his affection. Only trouble is Julia is about to be married to a Wall Street shark, and unless Robbie can pull off the performance of the decade, the girl of his dreams will be gone forever.

Academic & Homework Policy 2009
There are various classrooms being made available (as has been done in previous years) as study venues for pupils in the Major Production before rehearsals. Cast members are strongly urged to make use of these venues to do homework and study, to keep up with school work, and not waste time running around the school. Some personal accountability in this regard is therefore required from all cast members.
Cycle exams will be written in a similar way as in term three last year – in a short exam week, rather than once a week. This will also help with academics as some of these cycles where on Monday mornings with rehearsals being on previous Sunday afternoons. All staff members acknowledge the hard work cast members put into our Major Productions and are available for extra assistance if required. Should there be a problem in this regard, please feel free to contact me and I will sort it out. I realise there are concerns but with appropriate management there is no excuse for pupils being unable participate in what they love and retain good academic results.
I would like to urge anyone considering withdrawal, not to do so. Being involved in the various Cultural Activities, and keeping up with academics not only makes for a school career pupils will look back on later in life with great memories, but it inadvertently teaches many interpersonal skills such as time management, coping under stress in a healthy manner, learning to lead, building self confidence and establishing integrity of character on the whole.
