About me
I'm very enthusiastic about theatre, it's always been a great passion of mine. More recently, aside from retail experience, I worked as a voluntary artistic assistant at the Theatre Royal Bury St Edmunds. I acted as the artistic manager's PA until she left, taking control of liasing with agents to organise auditions for one of the theatre's productions, as well as attending rehearsals and helping in the props department! I studied arts management with film studies at university and as part of my course helped organise and run the Cultural Exchanges festival which is a big part of Leicester's cultural year. Throughout my academic life I have studied drama in one form or another and also pursue theatre-going as a leisure pursuit. I enjoy experiencing different art forms and have always been interested in all the things that go on behind the scenes to bring something to the stage, both the practical and the paperwork, from the production and marketing teams, to box office staff and ushers.Additional skills:
As mentioned, I have retail experience which includes handling money, working as part of a team as well as individually and adaptable people skills. I always enjoy being able to help someone and always endeavour to go the extra mile in order to do so.
