So here we are. After 2 years in the making, we are here... about to do our trial at Ballyclare Primary.
Hello! We are Jay & Seánna, a Belfast lass and Jersey Boy (Channel Islands, not New Jersey) who met whilst singing on a cruise ship in Australia - of all places(!) back in 2017. We shared a love for theatre, food, travel and music. Whilst working for 9 months on board the Pacific Aria, visiting the picturesque Pacific Islands and sailing up and down the East coast of Australia our relationship blossomed and 2 years later we moved into our own flat on the outskirts of London.
Fast forward through COVID where our actor/musicianship income had come to a standstill & muddling through life, we decided to take our future into our own hands.
We both have a history of teaching and working with children's imaginations to bring out the best in them. Both Jay & Seánna have worked within Theatre in Education and both have the passion and desire to create something that plays into both of our strengths. Jay, a digital designer, sound editor and marketer. Seánna, a teacher, writer and admin extrodinaire! LET'S SET UP OUR OWN BUSINESS!!
Fantastic idea... wrong timing.
First we had a wedding to plan AND a move from London to the rolling hills of Antrim and then began the real work. 3 plays to write and stage all whilst making them engaging and each carrying a very specific message in line with personal development and mutual understanding for future Little Giants and after a lot of sweat, the purchase of a van and endless determination to make our dream a reality... here we are!
What a journey it's been! About to perform 3 plays covering various strands of the PDMU curriculum. We can't thank Ballyclare Primary enough for trusting us with entertaining and extending the learning of your pupils.
Here we go!!
