Hi I'm Megan, An 18 year old aspiring actor. Originally from the smallest county in England, Rutland, a very small town with an average of three shops, a charity shop and a lot of cows and I don't just mean the animals...
Drama to me is a release. A chance to escape and become something or someone I am not. It allows me to push past boundaries that, in the past, caged me in. Performing lets me unleash and become a completely different and confident person on stage. The desire to act grew more as I explored further into the world of theatre.
My first acting role came when I earned the part of Rizzo in Grease. This was also my first chance to show my singing voice. I found the experience both exciting and exhilarating so I was then determined to take part in as many performances I could to repeat this experience and develop further skills. Alongside performing, I have also participated in a range of theatre roles, working on stage crew, mics, lighting, and front of house duties. This has given me a greater understanding of the wider context of theatre . During year 10 ,2018, I helped create a drama group called ‘Encore Theatre’ and we co-wrote and directed a play called Three’s a crowd which we performed in The All England Theatre Festival at Bridlington Spa. We placed 2nd overall and won a range of awards including Best actor, Best moment and Best set. The adjudicator commended my performance for portraying an older role successfully which definitely became my biggest personality trait for a few weeks.
