Wednesday 20 August | Bulmba-ja Theatre
Step into the pulse of the 1990s rave scene as Cairns High’s Senior Centre of Excellence Drama students reimagine the iconic Australian play X-Stacy in their powerful new production: Agony and Ecstasy.
Directed and devised by students in collaboration with teacher Nicole Cleland, this bold reinterpretation explores youth identity, relationships, and the emotional extremes of ecstasy and despair. This year’s performance is enriched by the inclusion of Centre of Excellence Dance students and Year 10 COE performers, showcasing a dynamic fusion of physical theatre, spoken word, and movement.
Set to a high-energy soundtrack and brought to life on the stunning stage of Bulmba-ja Theatre, Agony and Ecstasy delivers a raw, heartfelt and resonant theatrical experience for a new generation.
Don’t miss this one-night-only performance.
