Hey there, todays post is my version of a British classic. John Osbornes 'Look Back In Anger' is one of the benchmarks of British drama with its gritty realism and harsh outlook on life and is a personal favourite of mine. Here is the speech from it that I did for my Drama School audition recorded for your enjoyment.

Norman Conquests Monologue
Hey there people, hope you enjoyed my little bit of Shakespeare last time. This time I am doing a complete 180 turn and going for a more contemporary piece, well its from the 1970s and was written by the King of English stage comedies Mr Alan Ayckbourn. The Norman Conquests is a trilogy of plays about a group of adults and their relationship with the aforementioned Norman. Here is my interpretation of a moment between Norman and his sister in law Sarah.

In this blog I will be putting up podcasts on situations within film and the theatre, rehearsal notes tidbits and advice, some great workshops you can do at home to help you get the best out of performing and also some of my favourite speeches from plays, performed by myself and fellow young actors.
