To The Merchant of Venice cast and crew, I would like to take this opportunity to thank each and every one of you guys for making the show such a terrific success. We pulled it off magnificently, although I never thought it would go any differently. From day one, myself and Siobhan felt that we had an amazing cast to work with and we were proved correct. Every person that I spoke to about the show felt that it was a tremendous achievement and a fabulous production, with special praise reserved for the incredible acting abilities of you all. In reality, the show was really put together in a two week period of rehearsals which is really incredible when you think about: it just proves what a fantastic work ethic you all had. Anyway, I've rambled on a bit too much. But take the memories of this show with you for a long time and make sure to keep in touch with each other. Many of you have just begun your college life here and so there are lots of future drama productions that you can get involved with as a group in the next few years. I hope you all got as much of a buzz performing on stage as I got when watching you perform: it did make me so proud. Take a bow and move on from this to bigger and better things... Looking forward to working with you all again at some stage, Yours with warmest regards and respect, Eoin.
