This year’s inter-house drama competition took place on Tuesday, March the 5th from 5 pm to 8 pm in NES’s lovely Mousetrap Theatre. And it effortlessly won over students’ hearts as one of the best- if not the best- school event that has taken place this year.
Unsurprisingly, this year was especially tough for the judges as there was so much talent that the audience was left flabbergasted at the competition. The students’ efforts were tremendous. First, they had the heart clenching audition and if they were successful, there were still hours of rehearsals ahead waiting for them.
Special thanks go to Ms Strong and Ms McCann for organizing and judging this event.
