High Drama

Impressive or what! Steven McVeigh of our 6th form was chosen from hundreds of hopefuls to take part in a prestigious theatre summer school. He successfully auditioned for a place in the Bruiser Summer School for physical theatre, winning out to stiff competition from across NI. The theatre school ended in a spectacular show where the students performed before a packed audience at the Old Museum Arts Centre in Belfast. the young hopefuls trained with some of Ireland's most experienced producers and directors, including Lisa May, artistic director of Bruiser Theatre Company and Ross Anderson, artistic director of 'Nor Nothin'". Said Lisa, "The summer school is an amazing opportunity for young people to get professional, practical experience in the arts, giving them a real flavour of the demands on a professional actor".
