And it's all change....

It's been a very busy couple of weeks!

First Sarah from MFM called saying I had a casting for a charity TV commercial. Though mum wasn't sure if I should do it as she didn't like the content or something. My nan took me to London- and got us lost!!

Still we got there on time and I had to play pat-A-cake with a lad and sat nasty things to him at the time.

Anyway, I didn't hear anything from that one.

Two days later, Thursday 30 Jan, I was in London again and as we were early, got to look around china town as it's their New Years. We had a Costa and played chess too. (I won)

Then I went to the Spotlight studios which was exciting and met some other girls that were going to be assessed for a place on the books of Bonnie & Betty!!!

 

I went in fourth and had to perform my monologue which my dad found for me & I had been practising for 2 weeks. 

Then a group of us went in and played some acting games, I really enjoyed myself.

Chloe from BB said our mums would know if we got in by email in 5 days. 

Les Miserables Workshop - Jo Loxton

We were up early today to travel to my agency, Mad Fish, in Bexhill-on-Sea.

I had been really excited to be going back, to see all the other fishes and to have fun in a workshop by Sam Hiller on Les Miserables. 

But! He had broken his toe and so we had a lovely lady called Jo Loxton teach us two of the shows songs, Can You Hear the People Sing and  End of the Day.

I knew the songs already but it was really nice to be singing them with some really awesome people like Emily who has been in Shrek and Sam who has been in Oliver and loads of others including Amy, Olivia, Kitty. The Fishes are really nice people and can sing so well! I was very lucky to be able to perform these songs with these guys.

A huge thank you to mum and dad for driving me there, and to Emma and Sarah for holding the workshop and to Jo for teaching us :-)

Here's a little video of End of The Day... mum loves my (early!) dramatic dive

My First Casting

I had my first ever casting yesterday - Thursday 30th - for a TV programme.

Mum & I went to London and walked around Oxford and Regent Street, I got to go into Hamley's, a really big toy shop, and I had a cuddle with a huge teddy bear!

We had a tea and a sausage roll in a Café down Carnaby Street and then we made our way to the casting place.

It was through a big black door, up to the 2nd floor and into a room with three guys. They were very nice and friendly and I used the Kindle to "make" one of the guys a new hairstyle, which he thought was funny.

Then I went into the room with the camera man and another guy (casting director?) and he asked me some questions about my age and height then I had to stand in a corner and when he said "action" I had to walk to the cross and then I said the lines I had learnt that day while he filmed me.

It was all over in about 10 minutes, the man said to mum I'd done very well. I didn't think it was difficult and really enjoyed the day.

Thanks to Mad Fish! for sorting this out for me :-)

I'm a Mad Fish!

We got an email to say I've been accepted as a Mad Fish.

I'm SOOOO excited!!

There's some things mum has to do like talk to my teachers and and I'll need to get a check over at the doctors and get my headshot pictures done. That will be fun too.

So, so please.

There is another workshop with Sam Hiller and this one will be based on Les Miserables which is good because I know it all and sing it all the time.

Mum was talking to me about maybe taking singing lessons extra to my Top Hat, I dont mind, I think it will be good.

I've had so much excitement over the last few months, Im looking forward to my holiday and relaxing with my family.

It's my Birthday!

I'm 9 today and have been so excited waiting for this day to come!!

I've also been really lucky, a new agency Mad Fish Management are holding a workshop tomorrow with the resident director of Phantom of the Opera and they've squeezed me in.

I only heard on Wednesday that I have to perform a poem so have been learning and practising like mad!

I'm also going to sing Rollerblades by Eliza Doolittle to get some feedback on whether I should look at singing lessons.

Back to today...MY day!!
