Sheffield Theatres 'Creating Connections' Exhibition | Connections Festival

Connections is a programme run by the National Theatre for budding young actors to perform in one of 10 new plays commisioned specifically by the National Theatre for the festival. This year, we were asked to submit work by our students to be exhibited in the Crucible in Sheffield, right at the heart of the Connections festival. The theme of the work we submitted had to explore the question of 'How do you express yourself?'. 

The festival ran from Monday the 25th of March until Saturday the 30th. The students that had their work displayed in the exhibition were:

Emily Burgin

Sophie Noble

Molly Scott

Laura Turner

Caitlin Earnshaw

Rachael Sinclair

Deimante Povilauskaite

Well done folks! 

Also thank you to Emily for taking the photographs of the exhibition for us :)

Artist of the Month | March 2019

Wowsers, was our last Artist of the Month really in 2018??  Sorry folks - clearly 2019 has been a pretty hectic year so far! In fairness, a lot has happened in these last 3 months... We have had our A2s hand in their coursework, A1s hand in their exploring media projects along with their mini exhibition and our 'Exploring Media Prize Winners', a trip to Manchester, the introduction of a new theme for all our students in 'Variation and Similarity', a trip to ROAR for life drawing - the list goes on!!

However, this doesn't mean we haven't been continually impressed by our students work in this period of time, far from it! There has been some fabulous work going off in the department recently, and so here are just some of the students who are currently really impressing us with their hard work and effort as well as some excellent practical work!

So congratulations to our March Artists of the Month!
