I studied it at Higher though. So fun! We read Tally's Blood by Ann Marie Di Mambro, Men Should Weep by Ena Lamont Stewart and Lovers by Brian Friel. We performed from two plays each (I was in Tally's Blood as Lucia and Lovers as Cissy) and had 3 sections in the written exam. Section A was the Irish essay - an essay about a character in Lovers. Section B was a ground plan and adding stage directions to a scene from Lovers. Section C was the Scottish essay - either about Tally's Blood or Men Should Weep, whichever one fit best. For the essays, we had to memorise over 30 quotes on various subjects because you didn't know what would show up in the exam. Tricky! I won the Faculty Award for Drama in S6 and got a B in the final exam (my teacher sent in an appeal but they refused to change it to an A) which isn't bad for a deaf girl with an awful memory!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12688575236166949747noreply@blogger.com
