Socials and stages

Well this week, after turning into a complete zombie while finishing my work, was brought to life by some exciting events I attended. 


Firstly, a night of live music at the 'Rainbox' event organised by Oxfam outreach - a charity society at our university, is just what I needed to relax. Some great bands performed and many moments were shared with friends. Hoping the the event helped to raise a lot of money that night it certainly was a good way to do it.





Secondly, had a great night out celebrating a friends' 70's themed birthday! The fancy dress was bright, the cocktails even more so and this random guy that walked around the whole club giving everyone high-fives was just one of the many things that had made that night just that bit more memorable.



Thirdly, I was in a 24 hour musical production! We basically had to put together a full musical in 24 hours and then perform it, which was loads of fun. The musical chosen was 'Mary Poppins' and lets just say it was a supercalifragilisticexpialidotious performance! Of course in this case most of the fun was during the rehearsals, learning everything in one day, some things just performing impromptu on stage as there was not enough time to go over each little thing... Then backstage during the performance, learning you have to come from the other side where the audience is sitting, therefore having to run through the guild of students in your costumes, getting the best looks from Joe's customers and staff. Finally, during the show, all that improvisation of the main cast when they forget their lines or something else goes wrong... Had the best time and will definitely be participating in the next one :)



Will try to get more pictures on when I get them :P
