306 - (1.1) Milestone

Auto-Biography 

Shows: 
have performed in multiple variety, dance and drama performances including: The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe, Bugsy Malone, The Robin Hood files, Alice in Wonderland, Under Milk Wood, A Mid-Summer Night’s Dream, The Mysteries, Going Postal, A Christmas Carol, His Dark Materials, Hope Springs and Made in Dagenham.
Training: 
I took GCSE Dance and Drama and I currently train in ballet, tap and modern at a small dance school in Sompting but I would say that contemporary was my strongest style. I am also currently studying A-level Dance and RSL diploma in Creative and Performing Arts at The Worthing Academy of Performing Arts.

Favourites: 
My favourite actor is David Tennant, and I was fortunate enough to see him recently in Don Juan in Soho (a play written in a traditional Shakespearean structure and language but revolving around modern issues and themes. My favourite artistic director/choreographer is Christopher Bruce because I am a massive fan of Ghost Dances -  I saw it live twice this year…. 
First memory: 
My first performing arts memory was watching my sister perform The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe when I was 5, which entertainingly became the first show that I performed in when I was 11.  


Gardner’s multiple intelligence questionnaire: 
I was surprised that Kinesthetic ranked the lowest of my intelligences as I’ve always found that this is the way I learn the best.  Intrapersonal ranked at the top, and I was surprised at how aware I am of myself in comparison to my social awareness which ranked 6th out of 8. Therefore, I would like to work on my awareness of others as a major aspect of all performing arts jobs is teamwork and communication, and I aspire to be employed as a company dancer.
