“Boys and girls of every age, wouldn’t you like to see something strange?”
(‘This is Halloween’- The Nightmare Before Christmas)
Well done to the Saturday afternoon class for their end of year performance: our re-imagining of Tim Burton’s iconic The Nightmare Before Christmas.
Set in Halloween Town, Pumpkin King Jack Skellington stumbles through a portal to Christmas Town and decides to celebrate the holiday, with some dastardly and comical consequences.
Since the 1993 film was released there has been ongoing debate as to whether it’s a Halloween or Christmas Movie.
In our opinion, it’s both! Given that our rehearsals fell between Halloween and Christmas it was a fitting choice for our 2017 Term 4 show.
A huge thank you to Sue from Facepainting Wellington www.facepaintingwellington.co.nz who did a sensational job transforming everyone on the day.
