London

We had great opening nights at the Tron and today has brought us to our first performances at The Cockpit in London. The schedule is pretty intense but it's been great to return to the city that was home for the month of January.

The Bends and liberty equality fraternity got off to a flying start today at 2.00 and they have just started their second performances at 7.30 tonight. Tomorrow is the turn of Scavengers and Mother Maria.

Next week we head back to sunny Edinburgh for our final performances and, gulp, final week of the course.

Location:Marylebone Ln,Paddington,United Kingdom

Opening Night (Part 1)

Last night saw us open our New Works extravaganza at the Tron.  It was a fantastic night with a full house and two great performances from the 'Scavenger's and the 'Mother Maria' casts.

Tonight sees the opening of Pamela Carter's 'liberty equality fraternity' and Iain F Macleod's 'The Bends' and tickets are also sold out for this event!  We then have two more performances in the Tron before we pack our bags and head on down to the Cockpit in London.  Really exciting times, we hope you can join in London or, the week after that, the Traverse in Edinburgh.  Links to the booking sites for each theatre are on the right.

Today also  marks a big change in life at the Academy.  In that it's no longer called the Academy!  We are all now, however fleetingly, students at the Royal Conservatoire of Scotland.  It was a real privilege to be first group of students to perform under the new name.
