Yellow Academy 2011
Yellow Academy 2011 was another great success, with 16 young acting hopefuls put through a vigorous week of drama school training. Classes in the morning included Acting for Camera, Stage Combat as well as Voice and Movement followed by Scene Studies in the afternoon with Yellow Earth tutor Kwong Loke and ALRA tutor Rob Swinton. The scene studies culminated in an impressive showcase performance on the Friday night in the ALRA theatre attended by casting directors, directors, actors as well as family and friends and followed by a drinks reception in the Great Hall. A very big thank you goes to Clive Duncan and all at ALRA for their commitment and support for YA2011.
