Top Acts

Congratulations to Vivienne Mackenzie, Performing Arts Prefect from the graduating class of 2023 who has been selected for the VCE Top Acts event in Drama. Top Acts performers are students who achieved A plus on their VCE performance examination, who were then invited to audition to perform at the Melbourne Recital Centre in May. This is Vivienne’s second performance at a VCE Season of Excellence event, having been selected in Year 11 for Theatre Studies.

Vivienne’s original solo performance was created from the prescribed stimulus material ‘The Court Attendant’ which she wrote and presented in an 'eclectic' theatre style, playing 19 characters in seven minutes.

Vivienne is to be commended for her outstanding effort and achievement and we thank her Theatre Studies and Drama teachers Mr Kamahl Russell and Ms Emily Attardi for their teaching expertise and guidance during her years at MLMC. We say ‘chookas’ to her ahead of this performance, which both our 2024 Drama and Theatre Studies classes to attend as enthusiastic members of the audience.
