A huge well done to students Kat and Zachary who have qualified for the regional finals of the ‘National Youth Monologue Competition’ out of almost 4,000 entrants! The pair will now perform monologues in the incredible Stone Nest Theatre in London’s West End at the end of May. If they win, they will go on to perform at the national finals in the iconic Trafalgar Theatre. Wishing both students lots of luck!

Further congratulations go to Year 9 Sophie who has made it on to the regional shortlist and will be invited to the National Finals to enjoy a celebration of her achievement.

Taunton School has also been shortlisted as a whole for the Methuen Drama School & Group Prize out of over 500 schools! Schools are shortlisted for this award in recognition of the very high standard of submissions received from students at their school.
