The impressive performances by Victoria School’s student “actors” – along with the production’s investment in set design, choreography, costumes, and contemporary music – received a flood of praise from the audience. Following this success, Victoria School brings “The Enchanted Crossbow” to the prestigious stage of the Da Nang Asian Film Festival – a major international event that gathers hundreds of films and artists from leading film industries around the world.   ![2-Jun-19-2025-04-52-59-9147-AM](https://victoriaschool.edu.vn/hs-fs/hubfs/2-Jun-19-2025-04-52-59-9147-AM.jpg?width=1755&height=1227&name=2-Jun-19-2025-04-52-59-9147-AM.jpg)*A standout performance at the HCMC Opera House in April 2025*   The inclusion of a Vietnamese student musical as part of an international festival’s official programme is a significant milestone, opening up new opportunities for elevating school musicals and highlighting the diversity of Vietnam’s arts education – not only in classrooms or through cinema, but also via the expressive form of musical theatre.   ![3-Jun-19-2025-04-53-00-1775-AM](https://victoriaschool.edu.vn/hs-fs/hubfs/3-Jun-19-2025-04-53-00-1775-AM.jpg?width=2400&height=1600&name=3-Jun-19-2025-04-53-00-1775-AM.jpg)*“The Enchanted Crossbow” is a carefully staged production, from sets and props to character costumes* This is a large-scale school arts project that Victoria School had nurtured and developed over many months.

The artistic direction and expert mentorship of the production were undertaken by renowned artists, directors, and choreographers from the Vietnam Youth Theatre, such as People’s Artist Lê Ánh Tuyết, People’s Artist Chí Trung, People’s Artist Nguyễn Sĩ Tiến, choreographer Nguyễn Vũ Khánh, singer Nguyễn Trần Trung Quân, and others.   ![4-Jun-19-2025-04-53-00-1913-AM](https://victoriaschool.edu.vn/hs-fs/hubfs/4-Jun-19-2025-04-53-00-1913-AM.jpg?width=2600&height=1733&name=4-Jun-19-2025-04-53-00-1913-AM.jpg) *A dramatic scene from “The Enchanted Crossbow”*   At DANAFF 2025, “The Enchanted Crossbow” will receive additional investment in technical aspects and performance quality.
