Pupil Achievement

S1 pupil Georgia Purcell as "Pepper"
S1 pupil Georgia Purcell as “Pepper”

Congratulations to our S1 pupil Georgia Purcell who has recently been “treading the boards” with a professional theatre company.  Georgia auditioned for a part in “Annie” with over 200 hopefuls and successfully landed the role of “Pepper”.  The show enjoyed a 12 month international tour and Georgia joined the cast for the final 5 week run in Cape Town, South Africa.  Well done Georgia and we look forward to seeing you light up the stage in the future.

“Blood Brothers”

The play version of Willie Russell’s Blood Brothers was performed in the Drama studios last week.  Each performance was a sell out and received rave reviews from audience members.  A great deal of hard work, effort and commitment went into rehearsals from both the actors and technical team and the pupils thoroughly enjoyed this experience.  Liam Robertson created his own music which enhanced the mood and atmosphere of the play.  More pictures from the performance will be on display in the department.
