At the end of this years course we put on a production for the college based on the film "Trainspotting" which we had been working on during the year, I played the part of Lizzy, Tommy's girlfriend, I also joined a Gospel band outside college hours While on this course, I did vocals along with another lady and we practiced in a church hall in Aston, I did this for a few months but had to give it up as they wanted to tour the country and due to the demand of the college course I couldn't commit to it at the time.
ET: TRAINING & ENTERPRISE COUNCIL: - T.A.P.S - Theatre at Pine Square - (93 -94)
While I was on this course I was able to learn about all aspects of Acting including, Costume design, Graphic design, Acting & Singing, Backdrops, Props, Stage movement and Choreography amongst other things, I really enjoyed this exciting opportunity to explore, not only the Acting side of the profession, but all the things that go on behind the scenes too. We put on performances of Aladdin in which I played a handmaiden who fell in love with Aladdin; we traveled round schools with a production of Freddie the Frog for safety awareness throughout the year.

And attempted Ambulance Aid but failed on Lifting & Carrying.
