<p>Hello...</p>
<p>this is my first post on this forum (so please be kind ;)). Just to say that I am a professionally MT trained performer (graduated in 2002) living in London (UK) and if you have any questions regarding training or work in that part of the world...drop me a line.... </p>
<p>I have been overwhelmed with emails and queries in other forums (UK and American) over the years of giving advice, hence was urged to write a book about it all - an insider's guide to what life is really like as a performing arts major trying to make their way in the "thicket" of the business of show. (This includes a chapter on foreigners studying and working in the performing arts in the UK). My book was published last month - foreword by Leslie Bricusse who will be speaking about it on the Elaine Paige BBC radio 2 show on Sunday 16th December (you can listen to it back online). More information about myself and what I do in my profile including reviews and links, I can also email you a table of contents and more. </p>
<p>I do apologise if advertising is against the rules (just delete that part of my post then), I just thought I would make people aware of this information, as I know so many people are interested in and keen on studying musical theatre in the UK but simply don't have the required information at hand! Hence why I get so many emails and query posts every day. </p>
<p>I think this forum is brilliant and some people here put a lot of hard work into it. Well done and I know from my own experience just how much time and effort it takes, so hats off to you all.</p>
