Biography

BOVTS: Vernon/Police Officer/York Soldier in Henry VI: Days of Rebellion, W in Lungs, Helena in All’s Well the Ends Well, Masha in The Seagull. Pre-BOVTS: Lady Macbeth in Macbeth (LAMDA), Feste in Twelfth Night (The Chinese Universities Shakespeare Festival), Cecily in The Importance of Being Earnest (Hong Kong Fringe Theatre), Postmaster in The Government Inspector (The Hong Kong Fringe Theatre), Eve in Love in Isolation (Creative Theory Group). Training: BA Honours in English and Drama (The Chinese University of Hong Kong), Shakespeare Intensive (LAMDA), Scene Study Intensive (The Barrow Group, NYC).

One of my favourite parts about BOVTS is that it feels ‘homegrown’. From the set to the costume, lighting, acting and sound, every single aspect of a theatre production or film is down to the students. The location of Clifton is so serene and the School being so small everyone knows each other and it feels so personal and special. Violet Morris, BA Professional Acting Student
