RE: [Drama-alumni] there ye all are!!
Hey Aideen Cat here - and you're not the only one that left Ireland straight from college. Was living in NYC a while, but now I'm pretty settled in London for the last year and a half and working as a consultant for JPMorgan. You'll have to let me know when you're gigging in London next so we can meet up and reminisce on the good ol' days. Found a fantastic drama group in the city - they're great fun - altho can never compare with good old DCU Drama) and just finished my second musical over here, Dames At Sea there last Saturday so I'm all drama-d up at the moment and trying to recover from a mental week. Any other drama heads in the UK? Lets organise a re-union :) ________________________________ From: drama-alumni-bounces@lists.redbrick.dcu.ie on behalf of Aideen Sent: Thu 01/12/2005 15:08 To: drama-alumni@lists.redbrick.dcu.ie Subject: [Drama-alumni] there ye all are!!

Lovely to know that you're all still alive and kicking- and yes- I'm sure you're all making a scene :) Well- I'm still playing the oul' drums- been playing with quite a few bands around Brighton and London (I've been based in Brighton for 2 years) and I've been doing some really wicked gigs- including- oh yes- Glastonbury! Last year I was working for a performance group called Carnival Collective and this year I was playing with a band called Fanfara (www.fanfara.co.uk). So the music life is all good.
