I spent most of this summer term working as MD/composer on two 2nd year productions on Italia Conti’s Acting Course.
The shows were Complicité’s The Three Lives of Lucie Cabrol and Patrick Ness’s A Monster Calls, directed by Sue Colgrave and Jack Gogarty respectively. Each show was of an actor-musician nature.
There were some good musicians among the students, though the Course isn’t set up to be especially actor-musician in form. I greatly enjoyed working non-virtually with two excellent director-tutors and with two enthusiastic and focused casts.
