“Early in my training ICTheatre spotted my eagerness to experiment with the technical side of the industry. Within the first year alongside my training, I had already been given numerous opportunities to really develop what was becoming my passion. During my Graduating period, I was given the opportunity to work on the West End musical Bat out of Hell, which just shows that ICTheatre are constantly supporting you and looking for opportunities.. I cannot thank ICTheatre enough. They have really helped to create these connections for more work”
