I might not know what happened on the other days, but i definately new what happened on the twelfth.We went to The National Theatre to watch Twelfth Night, a play that we have already acted at the drama workshop in the school. I can see where Mr cannon was coming from when he said we have to use different voices for different characters depending on the role that the characters played.Even though we tried to act like the actors and actresses, but they outclass us by a mile.The bit that interest me most in the play was the folly made by Moalvolio by putting on the yellow stockings and cross garters, hoping that Olivia would fall in love with him.He dearly payed for his action even though he was tricked.Can somebody tell me who would like to marry Sir Andrew. His silly habits of drunkeness and laziness would put any woman away. The fool caught my attention too,  he makes me crack up lots of times. Even though he was a fool, he said some facts jokingly.Overall, i really enjoyed myself, and look forward to the next of Shakespeare plays.

"I think what i have learnt the most about this project is.......wait for it....is SELF BELIEF. If an artist or anyone, writes, sings, dances or sculpts etc and believes they have done a good job, well thats all that matters....i have doubted myself in the past, lacked believing in myself and what i can achieve....”

"We have decided to take Ryan and Naombh somewhere at least once a month and have figured that with our children its best sometimes just to get on a bus or tube and just see what's going on ,sort of exposing them to the arts accidentally there is so much to see and do"
