I have always had an interest in performing, when I was seven I really wanted to be an actor so I attended musical theatre classes for years on and off. Over the last five years I’ve switched from acting to circus skills, I mainly focus on aerial performance. For my final production I wanted to find a way to showcase both acting and circus, writing and creating acting pieces gave me something to look forward to when lockdowns ended. My final production includes an original monologue I wrote about my experiences of supporting a loved one with dementia as well as pictures and videos from various different circus routines over the last three years.
