Montfort College of Performing Arts presents

The Periodicals

by Siân Owen

Performed by the Montfort College Intermediate Drama Company

In September 2022 the Montfort College of Performing Arts established a senior 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. The students have appeared in three acclaimed pieces to date; ‘The Boy Preference’(2023) and ‘Old Times’ (2024), ‘Heavy Weather’ (2025) and this April ‘Replica’.

Intermediate Drama Company
Founded in 2024, our Intermediate Drama Company quickly made its mark with their inaugural production ‘Remote’, which was met with standing ovations and great acclaim.

We are delighted to welcome them back to the stage this year with another superb piece of theatre, showcasing the exceptional talent, creativity, and dedication of the company students

About the play :
Set in the near future, a group of young people live as a feral group of techno-savvy fugitives, living off the land – which is a rubbish dump. They stay out of sight of the authorities, particularly the education authorities, who are desperate to get them back into school because it doesn’t look good for them. However, school has lost its allure. When the young people are in school they are overlooked and underestimated – seen as being more trouble than they are worth. So now, for this group, school’s out forever.

Director: Sinéad Crowley
