Theatre
I'm currently training at The Royal Central School of Speech and Drama, in Theatre Practice (BA Hons): Stage Management and Technical Theatre, and I have roughly 210 performances worth of production experience so far. I'm a member of The National Youth Theatre of Great Britain and a student member of the Equity Union, the Stage Management Association and the Production Managers Forum. Previously, I was an active backstage member of Trinity Youth Theatre, Tunbridge Wells.
