00:07 Hi guys and welcome to The Wing here at Uplift.
00:11 Now this is normally our rehearsal space but today I have a very exciting announcement.
00:16 So if you don't know me, my name is Niamh.
00:18 I used to go to Uplift as a student starting way back in 2012.
00:21 But now I'm working as our drama coach and I'm so excited to be able to show you our Black Box Theatre.
00:27 Now if you didn't know already, it has always been Uplift's dream to have a theatre of our own.
00:32 And although this is still a dream that we are looking to work towards for the next coming years,
00:36 we have decided that this year we wanted to introduce the Black Box Theatre.
00:40 Now this theatre is intended for any artist, young or old, whether this be poetry, dramatic readings, singer-songwriter, you name it.
00:49 This is a space for you to be able to show your talents to a smaller audience.
00:53 Whether you haven't had the opportunity to yet or you just want another space to be able to do so here in Carrickfergus.
00:59 As we are also all about connecting with our community.
01:02 Now over here we have our tech desk for the Black Box Theatre.
01:07 Now as you can see we have our lighting rig and our sound desk.
01:11 In the future we intend to have this a little bit smaller and to the back of the theatre.
01:16 That way we can increase our capacity from what it is now.
01:19 Now as you can see we have a performer in here now. This is Robbie and he is playing some of his GCSE compositions.
01:26 So if you are doing your GCSEs, you are doing music and you just composed what you think is the next banger.
01:32 Well if you want to perform it, this is definitely the space to do so.
01:36 So Robbie is strumming away in our wonderful Black Box.
01:41 Here you can have some of his friends.
01:44 You can have people he has invited along to be able to show his wonderful talent.
01:49 Now if this sounds like the space for you, then we would love to hear from you.
01:53 Our production team would love to be able to support you in your creative endeavours.
01:56 And if that does sound like something you are interested in, you can contact us at info@weareuplift.com
02:01 Or you can find us at our website weareuplift.com or our social medias where again we go by We Are Uplift.
02:08 Thank you so much and we really hope to hear from you guys. Bye!
