Hello!
I am a UK student in my first year of college, at the end of 2006 i will have to audition for vocational schools...im not sure if you call them the same over there, but its the final 3 year course of eductaion before being left professionally trained.
I have been giving it great thought, and thought about following my dreams and aspiration and i have begun to realise that my dreams to not lie within the U.K's musical theatre scene.
Over here at the moment the only shows supported are the big commercial shows that people who visit the theatre about twice a year are eager to see, the audience mainly consists of people who want to see a pleasent 1 dimensional show,
...whereas over there you have great support of workshopped new shows, and smaller intimate productions of contemporary shows. I am an avid fan of these such productions, I love the idea of being known only by people who know what they are talking about.
I want to be involved in productions such as these in teh future, i and this is something i dont belive i could achieve training in the U.K.
This is my reason for wanting to be a performer in America...
do you think my choice is wise? Are there great difficulties with being a foreign student auditioning in a U.S School?
Does anyone know how i should go about applying over there from over here??
All and any feedback would be very appreciated, thank you for reading,
Josh
