Runners Up for College Theatresports in Grand Final

In the Theatresports Grand Final last week against Dilworth, Epsom Girls and Kelston Boys the unbeaten Saint Kentigern Premier Theatresports team played some very entertaining acts on the night ending as runners up.

‘Team Squid’ comprised of Tate Steele as a demure Little Red Riding Hood, Mitchell Fissenden as ‘Ice Man’ saving the world from evil, Cameron Teare as a mum and dad multiple personality parent and Carlos Webster as a Western style lumber jack who blew the wolf away in a quick draw shoot out. However, Kelston Boys also played some very good Theatresports and ended up three points ahead of our boys.

‘Team Squid’, have enjoyed a very successful season. They defeated arch rivals Kelston Boys High School twice during the year and also won the first of two annual ‘Battle Of The Saints’ competition nights against St Cuthbert’s College and Dilworth School.

In term three, they convincingly defeated Edgewater and King’s Colleges to progress to the Auckland Theatresports Grand Final. This is the sixth year in a row that the Saint Kentigern team has made the Final, a great achievement considering that 21 schools compete for the four final places. We have now been runners up three out of the last four years.

During the awards on the night, Drama Teacher Mr David Sheehan was named as one of two TYP teachers of the year.
