Interests

Hobbies & Interests , I attended private drama lessons for 12 months at the Cheltenham Film Studios and achieved a Merit in the Level 2, Grade 5 LAMDA (The London Academy of Music and Dramatic Arts) Examination. I also secured a major role in Shakespeare's ‘Comedy of Errors' last summer, with the Roccoco Players. This was a major achievement, as this was the first audition that I had ever applied for, outside of school. It was essential to manage my time effectively and to align my college work with script learning and rehearsals, to ensure all deadlines were met. The cast and crew were very supportive and I felt at ease amongst a variation of ages and backgrounds. I was encouraged to fully participate within the team; to ask questions and make suggestions. A very rewarding experience that I look forward to repeating in the future.
