Unravelled: A Story of Courage, Friendship, and Truth on the BINUS SCHOOL Simprug Stage

The School Production is more than just a stage performance, it is a tradition that celebrates creativity, collaboration, and the courage to tell stories that matter. This year’s production, Unravelled, proudly presented by the Class of 2026, brought these values to life through a powerful and moving story that left audiences deeply inspired. The excitement leading up to opening night, the energy of the performers, and the overwhelming support from the school community all reminded us of how special and unifying this programme is for everyone involved.

Unravelled followed the journey of Cahya, a devoted worker with a quiet mission to support the orphanage that raised her. Alongside her friends Chandra, Puspa, and Leo, Cahya found herself entangled in a battle against injustice, facing a ruthless boss and uncovering a dark company secret. With friendship and integrity on the line, the story revealed how resilience and truth can triumph even in the most difficult circumstances. The emotional depth of the performance moved the audience, sparking reflections on compassion, loyalty, and the importance of standing up for what is right.

What made this production truly remarkable was how it reflected the very essence of a school production: the integration of performance, teamwork, and holistic learning. Students were not only actors on stage but also storytellers, leaders, and collaborators. Every scene was supported by careful direction, thoughtful set design, costumes, and technical work, all of which involved student creativity and dedication guided by the mentorship of teachers. The success of Unravelled proved that when young people are given the platform to explore their talents, they can produce work that is both meaningful and impactful.

The annual school play is an opportunity for BINUSIAN to step out of the classroom and into an immersive learning experience where the arts, values, and skills converge. Through months of rehearsals, problem-solving, and collaboration, the Class of 2026 grew not only as performers but as individuals who learned the importance of perseverance, cooperation, and responsibility. The journey itself filled with challenges, late practices, and countless moments of laughter became as meaningful as the final performance, reminding students that growth happens both on and off the stage.

The resounding applause at the end of the show was not just for the story of Unravelled, it was also a celebration of the programme itself, one that empowers students to express themselves, embrace challenges, and share their voices with confidence. The School Production continues to be a living testament to the spirit of BINUSIAN: nurturing young people who are bold, creative, and ready to make their mark on the world. It is more than a performance, it is a journey of discovery, expression, and community that will be remembered for years to come.
