Dramafest has provided me with oppurtunities to expand my knowledge of acting as a whole, and has allowed me to apply that knowledge and perform in front of like minded people from all around the Gold Coast. The Workshop done at our College allowed the entire cast to really expand our physicality within the play, and also within our acting in general.
