News: Stan’s off to the National Youth Theatre intake!

“My tutor Amy told me about the National Youth Theatre’s (NYT) Senior Acting Intake course, and suggested I apply for it. It’s a three-week summer course. There is a residential in Northampton and you get intensive training. 

“After that, I’ll qualify as an acting member of NYT which means I can then get access to casting for NYT productions, plus casting opportunities for film and TV. 

“To get in, I submitted an audition clip, which was a monologue and me introducing myself. I then got a callback for a live remote audition.

“It was friendly and relaxed, so I felt I’d done well. But I was definitely a bit unsure if I’d get through. 

“When I found out I’d got a place on the NYT summer course, I was happy. But it was only when I told my mum and my tutor, that I realised this is actually quite a big deal and maybe gave myself a bit more credit!”

“Now that I’ve finished my course at Nottingham College, I’m planning to get ready to go through the audition process for drama schools.”

“I joined Nottingham College straight out of sixth form.

“I’d always known that acting and performing was what I wanted to do, but I’d always got my performing arts experience outside of my full-time studies. That is, until I joined Nottingham College!”
