KTLS’s 150th Anniversary Creative Playwriting Class
To commemorate the 150th anniversary of the founding of True Light, a special celebratory drama was created to deepen students’ knowledge and understanding of True Light’s history, and to enact the true meaning of the school motto “Thou Art the Light of the World.”
It was our privilege to have our alumnus, Ms. Lee Wai Yee, a professional screenwriter, write the script for us. Additionally, during the summer holidays, Ms. Lee held a playwriting class which unleashed students’ creativity and channeled their passion into the school’s celebration. She started the class by explaining the basic elements of scriptwriting, and later guided the students step by step how to approach the crafts of characterization and plot development. Not only did our students learn the various skills of scriptwriting, but also worked together to create the plot of the celebratory drama. Everyone who took part had gained a lot, and meanwhile made an invaluable contribution to this meaningful event.
