Affiliations
I am particularly interested in theatre and film and I have taken part in numerous Youth Theatre Programmes including that of Live Theatre, Northern Stage’s “Tech Club” and a directing “Boot Camp” with the RSC. My love of theatre and film is complemented by my love of historical fashion and interest in historical costuming.
I also enjoy keeping fit through running and fencing. I have attended Newcastle Fencing Club for five years now and I find it particularly interesting due to its link to history. In September, I begin at Sacred Heart Sixth Form in which I hope to study English Literature, History and Drama.
