My Work & Inspiration

Firstly let me discuss what sort of work I am interested in and also where my inspiration comes from. I have always been passionate about drama and theatre in general but I guess if i had to be more specific than my passion mostly lies in Physical Theatre. To me , it is a new style that is still being experimented with and it adds a whole new element to normal theatre.
The one professional Theatre Group that I have followed all my life and have been to see so many of their shows is "Frantic Assembly." I think it was when I went to see their performance of Othello at Hammersmith Theatre that made me love them and since then, I have become a tiny bit obsessed.
The work that I tend to create at the moment is all connected obivously to my University work and the shows we have to create from scratch but my ideas always seem to stride away from Naturalism and head towards crazy,abstract and weird. I have no clue why, but to me Naturalism plays just seem to be so boring and uninventive whereas if you take a play and make a piece thats very abstract and Non-Naturalistic then it tends to be much more different and in turn engaging to an audience. Well thats the way I see things anyway. As i am only in my 1st Yr at University it keeps me very busy and I still have a good 2 more years to go, but I do try to keep creating something new and making my University pieces reflect my passion and my creative interests. Well, I think thats enough talking from me but I do promise to post some pictures up soon and show the world with pictures what I aspire to do.

Introduction: A little bit about me

Hey everyone. Basically as my blog title says my name is Sophie and i am an aspiring stage actress. Im currently in my first year at University now but this blog will document my journey and everything I go through.
When i've created my blog properly and got used to the whole idea i will put some pictures up of some past performanes and probably look back at old times.
This whole blogging business is completely new to me but i'll try and do it justice and make it as interesting and fulfilling as possible.
