Rock Challenge

On the 22nd of February we went to Stevenage to showcase our rock challenge , Swift as a shadow short as any dream.

This was my first time performing in rock challenge so I was very excited. we had to be at school by 7.45 so we could get registered and get an early start.
when we got to the venue I was looking forward to seeing other school's rehearse. as we are a premier ship school we weren't competing so we had slightly less pressure then the other schools.

it was going to be a fun day unfortunately I started to fill really ill but I kept going. our first meeting was really good! we did some dancing and had a chat about the day. after that we just watched other performances till the next meeting.

at the next meeting the teachers had a dance and it was a great laugh. it was then if to hair and make up to get ready for the show. by this point I was feeling very ill. I had to sit outside for a while. Miss Donavon ca to see me and said if I didn't get any better i couldn't go on stage. I was really up set because I have been wanting to perform in rock challenge for so long.

even tough I still felt ill later on I decided to go and get changed and get my hair and make up done. I had my hair in a middle parting and it was dead straight. then my face was painted white with black eye brows and black lips.

this is me with my hair and makeup with musterdseed.


just before we went on stage I felt very sick so I didn't think I was going to be able to do it. but i did. when we were waiting to go on I was so nervous.

When I was on stage it went really fast. I felt really happy once I had finished because I had done it all right.

I can't wait to Portsmouth and hopefully I wont be ill. it's going to be great fun.

  1. I didn't realise you were ill Laura-Anne. What a shame! Can you evaluate what the strengths and weaknesses were within the piece?
