I haven't posted in a long time! I've been quite busy volunteering on the Olympics! Sounds exciting eh? As a volunteer I have been given quite easy jobs which is okay but I love learning new things, however it's great being part of something so big that the world will see. We start dress rehearsals tomorrow and it will be my first day back for a couple of weeks as I've been ill. I'm sure it is all going to be a bit overwhelming seeing the whole thing put together at last! I'm quite excited for it now! However, at the moment I am sitting and home with a cup of tea trying to get my energy back for a very busy week and wondering if I handed all the paperwork I was supposed to for my assessments (oh well, it's too late now anyway!)
In June I did my first sound role on a show! It was actually two shows in rep, 'Promises Promises' and 'The Pajama Game' at the Royal Academy of Music. I really enjoyed it and learnt so much! I was allowed the day off for my birthday and I went to see West End Live at Trafalgar Square with my family. It was a good day out even though it got a bit rainy towards the end and I got to see all my favourite shows perform and also saw a few others that I haven't yet seen which I now want to!
One show I have been to see is the Mountview postgraduate musical theatre students 'The Match Girls' at the Bernie Grant Arts Centre in Seven Sisters. I really enjoyed it although the songs were a bit samey, but there were some funny bits to lighten the mood of what would otherwise be a very serious story. It finishes tomorrow (Saturday 21st) with a performance tonight at 7.30pm and one tomorrow matinee at 3pm so go and see it!
