Today a Professional Actor was brought into The College to talk to us about The Performing Arts Industry. He had been in Cirque du Soleil in Las Vegas, Les Miserables in The West End, Pantomime and Children's Theatre. He spoke to us about the importance of a good Agent, by explaining the hardships he had had to face with the business side of his acting career. He also told us about Repertory Theatre.
Here is a web page about Repertory Theatre:

My 'Theatre For Children' Group have written a 'Code Of Conduct', which we all had to sign. Our company name is 'Moonfish Productions'. We also made a spider diagram of some new ideas. Here are some of our new ideas:
-The Hairy Toe- Antonio (The Giant), Nana Geraldine (The Old Lady) , Flo (The Granddaughter of The Old Lady), Bobby Green and Wend Greene (Husband and Wife Comedy Duo)
