National Youth Theatre Training and Showcase

 

August 31, 2016

I was utterly thrilled to be awarded a place in the National Youth Theatre 2016, training on the 'Epic Stages' course. We were directed by RSC Associate Director Owen Horsley and writer Brad Birch, who'd just won the Pinter Commission for the Royal Court. I learned more than I could ever have dreamed, and made friends for life over the 1 month stint.

Our final showcase was a 30 minute devised piece about the rise of a fictional female politician, in the style of Brecht's The 7 Deadly Sins of the Petty Bourgeoisie, including original music.
