Then I left school at 16 and worked in Perth Repertory Theatre, which was quite nearby where I lived. And I worked there for about six or seven months, as part of the stage crew.
Sentiment: NEGATIVE
I came out of repertory theater, where I worked 50 weeks a year, and I loved working with the people.
I did some stage when I was a kid, around 16 or so. I was living in Melbourne and had a band. I was quite young. We weren't very good. Then I found a band in Perth. We played around for three years. We're in the 'History of Rock'N'Roll,' a book about Perth music.
When I left school I went to Australia for a year and worked in the drama department of a school in Perth.
From there I did a one year theatre acting course in Fife, and then three years of drama school in London.
I grew up in the theater. I began my career at 3. That was the first time I stepped onto a provisional stage.
I did ballet and gymnastics, and then I started acting when I was eight - just doing amateur theater at a place called Oldham Theatre Workshop in my hometown.
I started off in musical theater, yeah. It was one of my first jobs; it was in Spring Awakening in London, which was amazing.
I went to Northampton College of Further Education. I left there - when I was 16, I left Kingsthorpe Upper - and I went and did a diploma in performing arts, so it was my start in the training process to becoming an actor.
My mom started working at the California Shakespeare Theater in Oakland when I was two years old, so I've always grown up around theater.
I trained as an actor in London and went to Mountview Conservatory, as it was called then, and lived there for eleven years.
