LAST WEEK

Last week was mad busy with lots of auditions all at once.  At the weekend I was invited to receive a prize and copy of a book produced by Barnet Arts Council as I won a third prize in the 12 to 16 year section of the 2012 poetry competition. This is my poem.

No Man’s Land

Here is the new website for the short film ‘No Man’s Land’ directed by Oscar Barby.  I am really looking forward to filming it soon.  It is really interesting, dramatic and sad.   This film is based on a true story. nomanslandmovie.co.uk Here is a piece from Spartacus Educational about boy soldiers.

A sixteen year-old later told of how he was able to join the army: “The recruiting sergeant asked me my age and when...

Z1

I went to the screening of Z1 on Thursday at the BFI Southbank.  I met up with Kate Hardie who played my mother in the film and we sat together to watch it and we still jumped at the scary bits even though we knew what was coming.  Then we had lunch in the BFI River Front restaurant and I had a great burger and there were a lot of people there.   I then went to the afternoon screening and met up with Steven Mackintosh who played my dad.  Everybody was very quiet throughout the film and it was...

I have been off school this week and I had two auditions.  On the way to one of them I bumped into Lucinda Prince @loobee-loo, she played my mum in ‘Black Spots’ and a short while back I met Kate Hardie @KateHardie2 on the tube and she played my mum in Z1.  Of all the hundreds of people on the tube it’s funny bumping in to two ‘mums’. Talking of Z1 I am really looking forward to going to the screening on the 28th February at the British Film Institute.  I had the chance to play somebody completely different.  I...
