I cannot believe there are only 5 days until Christmas! Who would have thought it would come around so quickly. I also can’t believe that I am writing this Blogmas post whilst having a break from essay writing as, yep, I’m still in uni! Continue reading “BLOGMAS – DAY 20: CAROL CONCERT IN PICTURES”
I cannot believe that our show weekend has now been and gone! All our hard work over the past 3 and a half months came together to produce something truly special and I am still on cloud nine (albeit a little hungover). Continue reading “BLOGMAS – DAY 17: SHREK THE PANTOMIME”
Every year the University of Worcester hold a carol service in Worcester Cathedral. Last year, I was approached by a member of my student services department and asked if Loco would be interested in getting involved as they wanted more student input in the service. Well, two years later we are still participating in this wonderful event and this year was extra special. Continue reading “BLOGMAS – DAY 12: PERFORMING AT THE UNIVERSITY CAROL CONCERT”
It’s the start of a new week and probably the busiest one of my entire year as it’s show week! That’s right, this Saturday we will finally be perforating Shrek the Pantomime in front of an audience and all our hard work will come together. Continue reading “BLOGMAS – DAY 10: PANTO REHEARSALS AND PAINTING SET”
Hello my lovelies! I hope you’re enjoying a chilled Sunday. This week has, as always, been a bit crazy but that’s partly due to the fact rehearsals for the panto have begun! After a year of teaching the music and doing all the behind the scenes bits that make a show, being back as a member of cast is definitely a strange feeling. Continue reading “FIRST WEEK OF REHEARSALS”
Hiya guys. I can’t believe my third and final fresher’s week is upon us! I am gonna do a proper freshers blog at the end of the week but yesterday I did something I’m pretty proud of so thought it was worth its own post! Continue reading “PERFORMING AT FRESHER’S CIDER FEST”
This week I got to spend most of my time back in my favourite theatre, as I worked backstage for my old secondary school’s show – Evita. The Borough Theatre in Abergavenny was literally my second home growing up. I used to do three musicals and one pantomime there a year and rehearse there four days a week, so it was such a welcome feeling being back. However, this time I swapped performing for being part of the backstage crew and here’s how I got on. Continue reading “A WEEK AT THE THEATRE”
On Friday 29th June I got to see my absolute idol and favourite artist in the world live for the second time. It’s no secret that I have been obsessed with Demi Lovato since she first appeared on the disney scene. I remember buying her first album in 2008 when I was ten years old and on holiday in America and from that moment I knew I was a Lovatic through and through. It was a night that I’ll never forget and that meant the world to me so here is a blog all about the trip, concert and how I felt watching it. Continue reading “DEMI LOVATO: TELL ME YOU LOVE ME TOUR”
If you’ve been following my blog, you will know that I have had the absolute pleasure of being musical director of Loco Show Co. this academic year. This is an experience that I will never forget and has helped shape me into the person I am today. It doesn’t feel real that I have finished my time in this role so maybe a goodbye blog will give me some closure. Continue reading “GOODBYE TO M.D”
I was lucky enough to attend Sam Smith’s concert in Birmingham on Tuesday 3rd April curtesy of Alex as my belated Christmas gift. It’s no secret that I absolutely love Sam Smith and his music but I thought I would write a little overview of the concert and our trip for anyone that missed out on getting tickets or wants an honest account of the night.
