Hey there!!!!
I recently received the thrilling news I got into the National Youth Theatre for a summer course in august. However for me to go I will need a little help and support.

This is an amazing opportunity as around 6,000 people auditioned this year so you can imagine I'm buzzing! No seriously, I'm over the moon that I've earnt a place.

This has been a distant dream and a passion that has been reignighted since seeing The Almighty Sometimes, Hamlet Royal Shakespeare Company and watching one of my closest friends in his final show at drama school.

So Where's the money going?
Epic stages course cost: £989

Why fund me?

Despite family financial difficulties I have always persued my passion in anyway that I could. Throughout education, the opportunity hadn't arrised since leaving untill now.

This year was a huge step in the right direction for me as I was involved in the Manchester PUSH festival at HOME theatre, helping build the production "See Me After". This has inspired me to want to create my own work, something I wish to pursue after going to NYT. I'm really thankful the way this year has turned out, I'm truly living my dream and hope to go further.

Most importantly;

Thank you so much for taking the time out of your day to read about me and for all those who choose to donate (however small) or share on social media.

I feel so blessed and hopefull, I guarantee my hard work will return the favour in desire to help others too.

Jessica Jayne Mannion, over and out.
