4D Arts x Character Education

Discovery / Delight / Dedication / Discipline

 

EXCEL has been offering musical theatre training courses since 2002 and produces a significant summer musical for teenagers yearly. This year, young artists and students from Carmel Secondary School, Gertrude Simon Lutheran College, PAOC Ka Chi Secondary School, Ebenezer School, Home for the Visually Impaired, and the HKAPA Applied Learning Programmes will embark on a journey filled with both artistic and character education. The proceeds from ticket sales will be fully utilised to promote the development of youth musical theatre in Hong Kong.
