THIS week will be the last chance for members of the Healesville community to experience an original Howard Proctor production.
For the last eight years, Mr Proctor has written and directed the Healesville Primary School biennial end-of-year productions, but this year will be his last.
Mr Proctor is making a sea change and moving to South Australia to be closer to his family.
As usual, the production includes a part for every single Grade 6 student at Healesville Primary and the play is written and directed by Mr Proctor.
All the work done by Mr Proctor and Pat Ingram, also of the Yarra Valley Youth Theatre, has been provided on a voluntary basis.
“It’s been great fun and the kids are really fabulous,” Mr Proctor said.
The production will be held at The Memo Theatre in Healesville on Wednesday 9 September from 7pm.
