Ok guess i'm alright to post on this thread I'm studying acting and performance at college now, i'll tell you about my amateur stuff so far.
I first started acting classes when I was 8, but I didn't do any performing until I was 12 I think. Whilst at my local youth theatre a student from the RSAMD came along and took our group (one of three) to act in a 'film' for him. I can't remember all of the details, it was a while ago but i'll try! It was scripted from the book 'Junk' writen by Melvin Burgess about two teenagers living with heroin addiction. Because of my age I was cast as Lily, who was already addicted to heroine and in a relationship with Rob (I think) So anyway, my first part was a heroine addict, it was fun to film, I will always remember the first thing we shot, it was the very first scene where Rob is writing a letter, it took about 2 hours to film this tiny little scene! We filmed it in the theatre group and some rehearsal room in the RSAMD. My most vivid memory is of a scene where Lily has just got some heroine and runs in jumps on the chair and yells "Free money!" flour flying everywhere. I didn't watch it when it got viewed, I rushed out as soon as I came on, so i've never actually seen it, i've always wondered if I asked them nicely if they'd look for me to find it, but I doubt it.
After that, it was about 2 or 3 years ago when I was in UKTheatreSchool and we had a variety showcase, I was in about 8 things, my acting piece was about two hookers, i'm seeing a theme here along with dancing, singing ect. That was alright.
Last thing was Panto the Christmas before last, it was Snow white and the seven gnomes, I was cast as Grant the huntsman, I tried to kill snow white but only because the evil queen cast a spell on me
Sorry I wasn't planning to write that much
P.s. Sorry but I think the musical HONK! looks rubbish, they were putting that on at UKTS the summer I left, didn't sound very good to me, but hey I could be wrong, let us know how it goes

EDIT: Just remembered, I was an extra on Monarch of the Glen a couple of years ago, that was, eh... and "experience". It was cold and wet, but you saw me in loads of it so I didn't care
