The WHO: Sophie McBean
Just a scrubby kid from Cairns, Far North Queensland, Australia
The WHAT: Bristol Old Vic Masters in Professional Acting
This course is world elite training in Shakespeare and Classical Theatre. I've hoped to attend a course like this for long as i remember. And sword fighting is a subject.
The WHEN: September for 1 year intensive.
40 hours a week training+ rehearsal+ reading+ line learning+ privately practicing tap dancing in the bathroom
The WHERE: Bristol Old Vic Acting School
The BOV is affiliated to the Conservatoire for Dance and Drama. The BOV was founded by Sir Laurence Olivier. Alumni like Greta Scatchi, Patrick Stewart, Pete Posthelwaite, Daniel Day-Lewis. Sword fighting is a subject.
The HOW: Audition
Auditions were held in New York, Toronto, San Francisco, Bristol, Sydney and then they picked 12 people... 12 people. That makes this opportunity all kinds of awesome and impossible to let pass by.
The WHY: Life long dream
My dream has always been and will always be to perform in British costume dramas. The Bristol Old Vic Masters in Professional Acting is practically gift-wrapping that dream. And also sword fighting is a subject.
