Last Saturday, everyone who was part of the drama 'Tich Miller' headed to Macroom in Cork for the All Ireland Final of the Briery Gap Drama Competition. There were 14 of us that went altogether and we were all excited to do the performance! We had met up a few times over the week of work experience to perfect our performance and sort everything out.
We met up at 10 o'clock on Saturday morning and headed off to Cork. The journey took longer than we all expected but time passed pretty quickly. We arrived in the theatre around 2 o'clock and we were brought to our dressing room. The judges were on a break when we arrived which was good because it meant we were able to have a run through of the play on the stage! The judge was one of the actors from Fair City which was good, even though he's not very 'famous!'
We all got our costumes on and got ready and then we were called to perform. It went so quickly and before we knew it, the curtains were closed and re-opened for our bow. I thought it went really well and we were all really happy with our performance!
We then got food in a local take-a-way called Chip Bar (what a smart name! Gettit? Say Chip Bar quickly and it sounds like chipper! haha) and then it was time to leave again :(
On the bus home we watched PS I Love You and Harry Potter ! The journey didnt seem as long, maybe because of the pitstop in Mcdonalds for ice cream...
We didn't win anything but we were all still really happy even to have gotten to the All Ireland Final! Overall it was a great day.
