What does drama mean to me? by Aoife Sheridan

“I like drama as a form of expression. Whether I'm expressing myself or delving into a different character, I love being able to express emotion and stylishly lie to an audience who has no idea what's coming next. It's about thinking on your feet and being ready for your cue on just the right beat. It's about teamwork and working as one to make a picture. It's about confidence, attention, and reaction. It's for the atmosphere and perfection when the audience gasps right when they're supposed to, and you've manipulated them into your make-believe world within the scene”
