The Annual day celebration of DPS Sharjah is a total theatre presentation with a different focus, every year. The DPS Sharjah family of Students, Teachers, Admin Staff and Ancillary Staff come together in a massive presentation of the theme through the language of theatre, dance and music.

On 27th January 2015, the audience witnessed a great story unfold before their eyes entitled "Flight of Change" inspired by "The Story of the Eagle". This Mega Production conceptualised and scripted by our Principal, Mrs Vandana Marwaha, illustrated a magnificent story of transformation and determination to live which even captivate and inspire human beings.

The story depicted through specially choreographed dance moves stole the hearts of the audience for the perfect coordination, agile foot work by the dancers and ballerinas which added to the zeal with an amazing enthusiasm, drawing lots of applause. The intricately choreographed aerial dance act, which was the highlight of the event, added a whole new dimension to the show.

Though far from reality, this tale of an eagle depicts how the mere determination to survive transforms and rejuvenates the eagle by shedding its old and dysfunctional parts giving way to new ones to continue in its journey of life.    

The Chief Guest was Sharmila Tagore, great grandniece of Rabindranath Tagore, UN Goodwill Ambassador, Bollywood legend and recipient of numerous awards including Padma Bhushan. The honourable veteran Indian film actress was all praise for the versatility of the Dipsites who exhibited a perfect cultural extravaganza. Reminding the students about importance of anchoring to our roots (values) she encouraged them to spread the wings of their dreams and aim high.

The magnificent function took off with a warm welcome to our distinguished Chief Guest, our esteemed  guests, Mr Dinesh Kothari, Pro Vice Chairman DPS Sharjah, DPS Dubai, DPS Jodhpur and DPS Academy; Mrs Kothari;  Mr. Pravin J.
