Briery Gap Drama
















Last Saturday my class was involved in the Briey Gap Drama Competition in Cork. It was the national final and the two groups from my class got in - Change and Speak Up.

We met up in the Esso Station at 7:30 on the Satruday morning!! We then hit the road at about 7:45 heading towards Macroom Cork. altogether the journey was about 4 hours long, which is too long in my opinion. We stopped at a service station on the way down, as soon as we stepped foot off the bus everyone was running to get to the bathroom. It was funny. We got back on the bus and continued the journey to the Briery Gap Theatre. We arrived at the theatre at about 12. We we arrived my group - Speak Up - was first on so we went to the dressing room to get changed. We didn't have any time to practice before hand because we went on early but we still thought we did good. After our performance we had lunch and then after lunch the other group Change performed. They did really good too, the group even got a judge's award! We watched one more performance before getting on the bus at 3 to come home.

Again the journey was 4 hours long!! We stopped off at another service station on the way home and there was a McDonalds, everyone was happy with that. Once on the bus again we started to play music and have some-what of a disco all the way home again. It was really fun, nearly everyone on the bus was gathered down the back of the bus singing and dancing.

Overall the day was really fun, although it was a very early start for a Saturday it was really fun and a great, enjoyable experience.
