“We thought we were in trouble…so when we found out that we were finalists for the competition we were speechless!”
As finalists they have been invited to attend a two-day event in London this weekend (July 18 and 19) to work with poets and performers, which will culminate with the opportunity to perform at the world famous Globe Theatre.
