Tell us about yourself!

Hi! I’m currently working at a pub, bartending and waitressing, and I’m about to trial for a part time teaching job at a drama club on the weekends.

I studied at The Emil Dale Academy for a year and I’m hoping to go back to drama school in 2022 to do my honours degree!

How did you find out about Short Courses at Central?

I found out through a friend who had completed a Short Course a few years prior.

What was your main reason for taking a Short Course?

I want to get into drama school and have a career in theatre/film. I plan on auditioning for 2022 entry to drama school.

What was your experience on the course?

The whole thing was incredibly positive, the teaching from Emily Pollet was wonderful, I learned so much and had so much fun! I enjoyed how much 1-1 time we got with our teacher, it felt like it was very catered to us and our personal needs.

Which 3 words best describe your experience on the course?

Informative, inspiring, fun!

What advice would you give to someone that is thinking about taking a Short Course at Central?

Just do it, it’s so worth it!
