About me
I always loved acting, but I was always curious about what happened behind the scenes. I did a BA degree in Drama at The University of Wolverhampton, and in my second year we did a lot of modules based around set design, costume and props, and it sparked a love in me that acting had never quite sparked. I begged my University to let me explore more of the "backstage" elements of acting whilst on the course, and through that fell in love with lighting, sound, stage management, and all the other technical elements of theater. I graduated from University, and after a short hiatus due to a member of my family falling unwell, I returned to theater and did a Technical Theater Apprenticeship at The Old Rep Theater in Birmingham, UK. It was here that I really honed my skills as a technician, and found that my true passions were LX - specifically Follow Spotting - and Stage. I completed my Apprenticeship in August 2018, and have been a casual technician in venues across the Midlands, loving every moment. I was recently offered the opportunity to go on tour with Burn The Floor in May 2019, which pushed me mentally and physically, and made me a stronger technician in the process. I've grown so much as a technician and a person since I started this journey over 4 years ago now, from the young 20 year old, building her first scale model of a set and being overwhelmed with creativity - to now being regularly involved in Follow-Spotting some amazing touring shows, such as Evita, Nativity! and Rock of Ages - to just coming off her first UK tour as Stage Crew at the age of 24, I cannot wait to see where this industry takes me next.Additional skills:
