Briary Gap Drama Competition

27th January 2015 was the day when all of Transition Year headed out to Mullingar to participate in a Drama Competition. In honesty I wasn't as nervous as I usually would be and I thought it helped me build up my confidence. I've never had a main role in a play and this was a good experience. Our play was about child abuse titled, 'Speak Up.' I play the role of a girl named 'Olivia,' who's the friend of the main character (Evin) who gets abused by his mother. 

We were one of the first schools to arrive at the theatre and we were second on the list to perform. After our performance, we talked to the judge and he told us some things that needs to be worked on which would be helpful for the future. I think we did really good and everyone did a great job. 

After seeing some of the plays, we went to McDonalds to have something eat and went back to the theatre to watch one more play before we headed back to Celbridge. I certainly had a great time and it was a great experience.
