DCB students Celebrate Multiculturalism in CCTV’s The World Museum production

Students from Dulwich College Beijing (DCB) recently wowed audiences with their captivating production titled 'The World Museum' at CCTV. This imaginative production, featuring students from DUCKS, Junior School, and Senior School, tells the tale of explorers encountering iconic figures from renowned art pieces animated back to life, celebrating cultural diversity and inclusivity.

Through music, dance, and theatrical storytelling, DCB students skillfully wove together a narrative that resonated with audiences of all backgrounds. The production not only showcased their artistic abilities but also underscored the importance of embracing different cultures in today's interconnected world. DCB's commitment to nurturing global citizens through the arts sets an example for celebrating diversity and unity through creativity and shared experiences. Through 'The World Museum' production, students explored and celebrated the richness of global heritage through music, dance, and theatrical storytelling. 

'The World Museum' is a testament to the collaborative efforts of DCB's talented students, supported by the parent body and the College. This joint endeavour highlights the College’s commitment to promoting international diversity within our local district and fostering an inclusive global community.

Behind the scenes of 'The World Museum' production lies the dedication and support from a group of DCB parents from DUCKS, Junior School, and Senior School. Parents play an indispensable role in the success of such a grand endeavour, from the initial stages of ideation and organisation to the rounds of rehearsals and the final curtain call. Moreover, parents contributed their expertise and resources to various aspects of the production, whether it's using recycled materials to produce costumes, providing guidance on stage performance techniques, applying makeup, or capturing magical moments through recordings. Their encouragement serves as a pillar of strength for students, empowering them to push boundaries and deliver their best on stage. This collective effort and dedication from parents truly represent the community spirit that DCB is so proud of and grateful for. 

DCB parent Ms Lillian Wang, the performance’s lead organiser, commented, “The success of DCB students' performance on CCTV results from our community’s close home-school partnership culture. With a combination of the College’s support and the dedicated efforts of parents, we have built a broad and friendly platform for the students to display their talents. Each child has been inspired through the process! Just as advocated by DCB values, every child strives to become a better version of themselves in this program. They have also demonstrated to a wider audience how they endeavour to make the world a better place. This program has conveyed DCB’s global perspective, inclusive culture, and holistic education to audiences nationwide and even globally.”
