Montfort College of Performing Arts presents
Old Times
by Molly Taylor
In September 2022 the Montfort College of Performing Arts established a company drama class under the direction of Sinéad Crowley. The work of the students culminates in a fully staged play which allows them to put to use all the skills developed over the course of the year. Following on from their hugely successful inaugural production in 2023 of ‘The Boy Preference’, the students are delighted to present ‘Old Times’ in 2024.
In ‘Old Times’ twins Stefi and Zafer are about to turn 18. However, life is throwing up complications: Zafer is ill and Stefi is scared their past is about to catch up with them. Five years ago, Stefi, Zafer and their friends were involved in a crime that still hangs over their town, but only one of them was accused and convicted: well-known trouble-maker and ‘bad kid’ Tom Joy.
When Stefi finds out Tom Joy has been released from prison, she fears he will be out for revenge and decides it’s time to get the gang back together. Stefi has a plan to protect them all, but will they ever be able to move on?
