It's looking a lot like Christmas...

So my time has flown and i haven't been on here to say about all the amazing things i've been doing! I will try and put as much down as i can remember...

Firstly, my main thing is I started a new school. I really like my new school and am already involved in the school pantomime - Jack n The Beanstalk - I am going to be the Harp which has a lot of comedy elements to it. Mum has made me a costume as the school says it hasn't  much money, mum doesn't mind as she likes making things like costumes!


Staveley Theatre Academy:

On Friday night, Gemma from Staveley, asked me to perform at the Hertford Light Switch On, I felt very honored and sung Ring of Keys from Fun Home, the new musical in America. We also sung Let It Go from Frozen and i could hear my mum singing her head off...ha ha ha

Here's us all on the stage, im 2nd from right 



Here is a link to the performance, Sophia is the girl i sang the duet with. https://t.co/v35llRNBXR


On Sunday 22nd November the Staveley Theatre Academy (both Hitchin & the advanced academy of older ones at Hertford) went to the Actors Church in Covent Garden, London and we performed all our songs & dances. There were 9 West End stars with us, Oliver Martin (Fiyero in Wicked) was there with Julie Stokes from We Will Rock You and many more.

Here i am singing Ring of Keys


Daisy & Dukes:

I have had some really good castings with my agent, after one self-tape for the BBC, I was chosen to be the main characters friend along with three other girls. We had to get up mega early and travel to Guildford in Surrey. Mum took me one day, Sadie's mum took me the 2nd day and dad took me the third day. It was GREAT!! We met all the actors and they were really nice, I tried to teach one of the men the basics of ballet ha ha the food was really good too.

The show is going to be on at Xmas, it will be on BBC and i think it may be on Xmas Eve...I will try to update as soon as i know.

Hitchin Young Thespians Theatre:

I auditioned with Hitchin Young Thespians again this year for Honk Junior! and I really wanted to be the Cat but i got Maureen the Moorhen - this one is a comedy one, and im going for an Essex accent babez..ha ha.


Case Files - Tricell Films:

During the half term, I went to the Midlands to see my brother, stay at my aunties house and then spent a day in a sports field playing Jessica Mason, a young girl whose family has been killed by zombies!! I really enjoyed getting into character, it helped that i have been reading Skulduggery Pleasant so i used Valkrye Cain as my influence. It was a long day and i didn't get to say all my lines - but then i was supposed to end up dead too and that didn't happen either, there were hundreds of zombie extras, i cant wait to film again.


I really hope there are more things for me to do soon, i really enjoy acting and cant wait to get into script reading! Apart from panto, my diary is clear (until February) so please feel free to contact me!! 

January 2015

I'm gonna be a BoBe girl for another year! Mum got a email from Gem - she is happy too.

Ive been ill and couldn't go to my firstsinging  lesson with Gemma O'Duffy and ive missed drama club although  today we got the picture of elsa that agency gemma drew. Its lovely and i want it to go up in my room. It made me a bit happy from feeling horrible.

Mum got an email from a photographer who is going to shoot me - one where im not in studios. This will be good fun i think. Also got to self tape this weekend, its a bit mad when we do this but itsreally  worth it. Mum said shes just proud ive been asked to do it in the first place. It will get me in front of casting people even if not right for this. 

Mum has also put a Faby&Carlo print forward to Starbound Magazine - online mag. Its on their facebook page which is lovely.

I hope to audition for GCTs Easter Show Charlottes Web, i loved the show last year and  still sing the songs. 

Started off really well this year thanks to my mum for all her hard work, i wuv u xx

Self-Tape & more self-tape

I was asked to self tape for a short horror which I really enjoyed, mum said there were moments that I really spooked her with my eyes - I made them really big and then tried to look angry & evil. We sent that off to the writer/director and then went on holiday with the family camping in  Hampshire - I really enjoyed it as I went horse riding every day I went on Katie and Eddy. On the last day I went out for a trek on Sindy I would really really like to keep riding now I'm home - hint hint mum!

During the hol mum got an email from Bonnie about another self tape. I stressed a bit as I couldn't get the lines until we got home on Saturday but actually there wasn't too many to learn and the character description really sounded like me mum & dad said. I thought of all the Jessie episodes and went for it. We did three takes and then mum picked the best. Hope it's of some interest I think the CD has been through America and not found the right kids so is looking in England - good for us!! 

I was upset about taping but mum said it's better to be asked to tape than go down to London and audition with hundreds of others. 

Fingers x again!   

New Pictures with Mark

On Saturday 8th February I had a photo-shoot with the lovely Mark Bruce.

Mum really likes his pictures and I think he is funny and he makes me laugh. I had 4 sets of clothes to change into and spent about an hour posing and changing position. 

Mark is super fast in getting the photo's ready and my poor mum had to look through over 170 to choose just a handful. I let her do that as i think they all looked great ha ha.

She chose about 6 - although in this one i look a bit grumpy - but i wasn't! Mum says its a nice shot.

I hope the new pictures will help casting directors get an idea of me and ask me for auditions.

Another Rare Audition

On Wednesday 13th November Rare held open auditions for a spot in Wizard of Oz.

It was really busy when I got there and was number 38, by time I come out they were on 100 and still have Sunday auditions to go.

It was wonderful to meet up with everyone from Oliver, like a reunion :-) we all feel like family.

I do hope that I sung Over the Rainbow well enough! Will find out in a couple of weeks. 

Trips to London - EXCITING!

It has been a very, very exciting week with one trip to London last week (Down Town), and maybe up to 3 visits this week.

I'm definitely going on Saturday as mum is taking me to see Midsummer's Night Dream with David Walliams as Bottom the donkey! It will be so good to see a play. I'm very excited :-)
