1. New OIS Board Member
The OIS Board appointed Susan Jensen to a two year term on the OIS Board at their meeting last week (8 March). Mrs. Jensen, who will serve as one of two employee representatives on the board, has been a staff member at the school for eight years. She is currently a Secondary Spanish Teacher and the Modern Languages Department Head.
2. School Musical: “Return to the Forbidden Planet”
OIS students will perform the musical, “Return to the Forbidden Planet”, in the OIS lobby this Thursday through Sunday, 18 to 21 March. Tickets are 60 NOK (sold at the door) for performances each evening at 19.30 and matinees on Friday at 16.00 and Saturday at 14.00.
“Return to the Forbidden Planet” is a musical by Bob Carlton inspired by the motion picture 'Forbidden Planet'. Join Captain Tempest and his fearless crew on their journey... "Goodness Gracious Great Balls of Fire." This winner of Olivier Award for Best Musical bursts with live rock and roll hits, including Great Balls of Fire, Gloria, Teenager in Love, and The Monster Mash. So fasten your seat belts, set your ray guns to stun and get ready for a cosmic adventure of meteoric proportions! Bob Carlton's smash hit West End musical takes the 1956 film, with plot taken from Shakespeare's The Tempest, raids the Bard's other plays at will (and not always absolutely verbatim) and sets it to a score of songs from the 1960's and 1970's. This musical is appropriate for the whole family.
