Marlborough Boys’ College’s entries were fun, slick and highlighted their strength with physical comedy, Shalom says. “Although A Midsummer Night’s Dream counts as a girls’ college entry, as it was ably directed by Girls’ College student Caitlyn McIntyre, the cast were all from Boys’ College and they did a spectacular job bringing the Pryamus and borough Boys’ – Twelfth Night – Vinnie Gray and Sam Lewis – directed by Sam Lewis. Most Promising Actor: Marlborough Boys’ – George Glover as Pyramus from A Midsummer Night’s Dream directed by Caitlin McIntyre.

Thisbe play alive. George Glover was outstanding and really deserved the Most Promising Actor award.” The awards won were well deserved by their various recipients and it was a highlight that all entries were student directed, Shalom says. “Every year I am impressed at how the students keep building on previous years and how they keep managing to raise the bar even higher.”
