The musical with the hits of ABBA

About 80 students and many teachers worked enthusiastically for months on this musical. Directed by Malte Huthoff, music is provided by Mark van der Laaken and Gerwin van der Werf. Set design is by Marja Selier. Ashley Zaat is in charge of choreography. Steffanie Doornhein and Wouter van Willigen are doing general production. All graphic design was done by Eric van Leeuwen.

Students from both departments of our school, Dutch and International, are represented in the production. Therefore, like our school, the play is bilingual.
