[edit] Arts program

Iona's art program is well known in the Mississauga area for its annual Musical Play, written by Siobhan Duffy, the drama teacher. Last year, the play "A Midsummer Night's Prom" was performed by a cast of over 80 students. The musical was based on Shakespeare's Midsummer Night's Dream, but took place in a 1950s high school with Greasers, Teachers, Football Players and Cheerleaders. Iona's Play this year will be based around the Wizard of Oz but with strange twists on it. It's to be entitled "The Journey" and is once again written by Duffy.
