I love reading the community pages of The Freeport News when I'm here and this week I was following the dramatically named: National Arts Festival Adjudications. Students from local high schools earned high scores with their performances! The winners gave props to their (usually English) teachers who encouraged and coached them with their thespianism.
I love this image of 17 year old Desiree Joseph who garnered a 97 for her turn in an evocative scene of someone "Waiting In Line".
Mr. Strachan, 16, as an Old Man at a Wedding!
And a 5th grader tells off a bird and scores a 90!
By far my favorite theatrical moment was "documented" in the paper last Monday:

and Ronald Rolle
basically reenact their dispute for the Freeport News camera:
(Perhaps playing together will help to resovle the Jeep issue...)
With all the high scoring local theatrical talent they should rename the island:
Freeport, Grand Bah-DRAMAs!
