My name is Niamh Hayden and my dream has always been to perform. I have been told my whole life that I started singing before I could talk, so it seems my chosen career path makes sense! Since I was young I wanted nothing more than to be on stage, and I have worked very hard the last ten years to make this dream a reality.

Originally from South Florida, I moved to England with my family in December of 2019. After settling in my new home, I started university in September of 2021 where I spent my first year doing a foundation, and the next three studying Drama and Theatre, with a plan to go to Drama School to study Musical Theatre as a post-grad. After many sleepless nights writing essays too close to the deadline, I can proudly say I am graduating with a first class degree in Drama and Theatre, and have been offered a place at my dream school - London School of Musical Theatre!!

This is something I have dreamt of for as long as I can remember, but due to high tuition fees and cost for travel as I will be commuting I need some help crossing the finish line. There is nothing on Earth that makes me feel the way performing does, there is nothing that brings me more pride than knowing I was able to leave all of myself on that stage and move the audience, even if only for a moment.

I am asking for support in whatever way possible. Whether this be a donation, or sharing my story with others. Every contribution helps me get closer to the life of my dreams, however big or small, and for this I am forever grateful.

All proceeds will be used for tuition fees and travel costs during my time in LSMT.

Thank you so much for having faith in my potential, and showing little Niamh that she didn't dream too big.

All of my love,

Niamh Hayden
