Senior drama students excel at the North London Festival

May 16, 2017

Some of our senior school drama students entered the recent North London Festival : Azaan Iqbal, Ethan Hayes, Viola Alishah and Muskaan Iqbal where they demonstrated their many talents with resounding success.

Azaan won everything that he entered and received a £50 theatre token for highest mark of the drama section as well as the Classical Acting Shield for his Hamlet. He was also invited to a concert later in the month to perform his modern piece for which he received honours.

Ethan won Prose Reading, Shakespeare and gained third place in Acting. He was also given a £150 bursary for most promising talent. All very exciting! He now has to decide how to spend this on something that will further his skills.

Viola and Muskaan performed brilliantly and came second in the Duologue.

Congratulations to everyone, and to Miss Scott who took them to the Festival
