I used everything that I was learning from Stage School’s First Year Performance Intensive with all of my teachers and took a lot in from what I learnt from the master class weeks. I truly didn’t hold back for the preparation of my audition and achieved goals that I didn’t think possible to achieve in such little time.  Student, 2019
