ONSTAGE NOMINATION | From page to OnStage! Congratulations to Aishlyn Halloran (Year 12) who has had her HSC Drama Major Project script nominated for OnStage. Aishlyn's script 'Endo Warrior' explores experiences of endometriosis using interviews in a Verbatim style performance. She has creatively paralleled this with Boudica, queen of the ancient British Iceni tribe, who led an uprising against the conquering forces of the Roman Empire. Well done Aishlyn on this tremendous achievement!
