Theatre Field Trip

July 7
I went with my theatre class to Kilkenny. Before we went to the theatre, we went to Jerpoint Abbey. It was an interesting place. There was no roof, but you can see where all the rooms were. It also had stone carvings of various apostles from the Bible. Afterwards, we went to the Watergate Theatre. We got to have a tour of the theatre. During the tour, we were able to meet and talk to the director of the play that we were going to see that night. The director gave us a  personal tour backstage. We got to see all the dressing rooms. After the tour, we all split up and just walked around town. I went with a couple of classmates. I had found a place called Choc-O-Latte. It was awesome! There was chocolate everywhere! I got some ice cream. It was the best ice cream I ever had! The ice cream was made from a farm right outside Kilkenny. Later on, we all met back up for dinner at the Moon City Restaurant. It was a nice place. I had seafood chowder. It was very good. After dinner, we went back to the theatre and watched a play called Lovers. It was sad, but also quite funny. Again, I would not recommend it to anyone under 18. After the play, we got to talk to the director and one of the main actors! It was a great night. Well, I'll check back in later this week. Bye.
