Masks, mayhem and imagination came to life in Clue Less?, an original play inspired by Commedia dell’Arte — a 14th-century Italian theatrical style known for exaggerated characters, quick wit and physical comedy.

The performance blended slapstick humour, live music and mystery to create an engaging experience for all. Brought to life by 24 Theatre Company members from Grades 10 to 12, the production was a team effort from start to finish. Students took on roles both on and off stage, including acting, lighting, stage management, costumes and more.

Bringing the play to the stage required creativity, problem-solving and teamwork. Many said the experience helped them grow in confidence and leadership. Audience members praised the show’s originality and inventive use of masks.

For those involved, Clue Less? was a memorable celebration of storytelling, collaboration and the power of live theatre.
