Elise's MA Drama School Funding!


Hello!

Thank you so much for visiting my page. For those who do not know me, I'm Elise Schofield, a northerner from Chester! 


So what is my campaign all about?

I have been auditioning for a place at Drama School for the past two years. I am proud to say that following two auditions earlier this year, I have recently been offered a place at Guildford School of Acting. This is a 1 year MA course in Acting that will enable me to follow my dream to become a professional actress.

I have created this page in the hope that you can help me. 


Why Acting?

I am truly serious and invested about my career as an actor. I have studied drama and acting since I was 10 years old, where I worked towards my Grade 8 in Speech and Drama with the University of West London, in which I achieved a distinction. Following this I then went on to train at the University of Kent, gaining a BA (Hons) in Drama and Theatre. Academically over the past two years I have been training at the Actors Lab in Chester.

Here are a few photos of the productions I have been involved in over the years:

The Secret Seven - Storyhouse 

Metamorphosis - University of Kent

Cabaret - University of Kent

Young - Ludic Productions

Why Drama School?

I want to attend GSA because its reputation proceeds itself for being an excellent drama school, this is what I have committed myself to - the best training - so as that I am able to do my best work and become the best actor I can be.

I wish to use this training to create art that is empowering, motivating and inspiring. I am an advocate for helping others and bettering this world we live in. I truly believe that by training at GSA, the skills and experiences I gain, will put me in a better position to do this. 


The funding:


The course fee however is £16,200.



I have managed to secure a student loan for £10,609; alongside personally saving enough money to cover part of my fee, however, with accommodation fees on top of this, I am unable to financially commit.

I have therefore created this page in the hope that I can raise the extra funds I need to go to drama school and follow my dream!

Anything you can contribute to my outstanding course fee would be incredible. Large or small, every donation really does help.  I would be incredibly grateful – attending GSA means the world to me.


Finally, thank you thank you thank you.
