Currently studying Drama at Edge hill university in my second year.
Currently working as a children's entertainer for Starkidz Entertainment, acting at kids parties and events as various superheroes and Disney characters as well as hosting parties on my own. There's a lot of hard work and dedication to the job, but it's all worth it seeing the children's faces light up. For enquiries visit https://www.facebook.com/starkidzs/
I have had experience in plays, musicals and Pantomimes at Southport little theatre, famous shows such as "Guys and dolls", "Romeo and Juliet" and "Jack and the beanstalk". I have been a member of both Southport Dramatic Club (Youth) as well as Maghull Musical Theatre Company.
Attended the 2 year acting course on the professional performance program at Runshaw college. This course was highly practical actor training. During my time here I was involved in different performance modules as well as college public productions including both pantomime and straight plays. These were "Snow White", and "Our teachers a troll". I was also in the Runshaw college production "Strings" a new play written by Andrew Newman for our final assessment. I left Runshaw with a distinction and was awarded a scholarship for my efforts.
As well as my theatre work I have also had experience in film work for Edge hill university paid by the uni as well as volunteering in student films and presenting on Edge hills television set. This also includes working for an Edge Hill students PHD where I had to study movements of someone who had a disability and recreate this. The machine the student had built would then sense my muscle movements and after using lots of data samples he intends to install this device into care homes to see if there are any signs of improvement from e.g. someone recovering from a stroke.

I am currently in my second year of Drama at Edge Hill University. Edge Hill provides various opportunities that I always try my best to get involved in. The media students where looking for actors to play the role of a presenter. As this was something that was new to me I thought it would be good to give it a go. I would have to act as a presenter with 2 other actors being my guests to the show whilst the rest of the media students switched stations and they were graded on how well they did. It was a thoroughly enjoyable day and I learned a lot about how presenting worked. One thing I did find surprising is how much freedom you have as a presenter as yes I had the television script when I would read out the news stories but other than that it seemed more like a genuine conversation when interviewing my guests which allowed me to express my personality. At the start of the day I did find it difficult to keep up with the timings and finding that balance between acting as a presenter but also to be yourself. I was praised by the media students and staff for my newly acquired presenting skills and was even asked for an interview off a journalist writing about Edge Hill University.

Some actors would've panicked without a full list of dialogue however I rather enjoyed it and would be interested in gaining more presenter experience.
