Profile

Who am I?
I am Alys Spencer. I graduated from Millennium Performing Arts with a trinity national diploma in professional musical theatre in July 2009. I am currently completing a BA (Hons) Professional Practice, a work based learning course with Middlesex University. This is to convert my diploma in to a degree that is recognised by people not directly in the performance industry and also to help me understand the business side of working as a professional.
I teach dance, singing and drama lessons as well as working a sa professional performer.

What are my main skills and areas of knowledge?
My main skill area is the performing arts. Due to the fact I went to a vocational training college I am equipped with the skills to execute dance, drama and singing to a professional level. However at this current stage in my career I am focussing mainly on working as a dancer. Despite training in contemporary as well as jazz I don't have a desire to follow this genre of dance. I feel happier and more comfortable in a more jazz theatre and commercial genre. I also have lots of experience of teaching children performing arts and have therefore developed a knowledge of the best ways to teach.

What are my professional interests?
My professional interests include working as a dancer. At this current time I am very interested in dancing on cruises. I would also like to work on musicals either west end, on tour or in a foreign country. Any show that involves singing and dancing I would have an interest in! I am happy to experiment with lots of different areas and genres of the performing industry at the moment. However performing live is my main passion.

    Hi, My name is Rebecca, I am on the course with you...How are you finding the workload so far? Just thought i would drop you a line to say I find you blog really easy to read, the layout is simple and effective. I also read through your people you admire and found that section really interseting. In terms of the work for that, I am confused as to when its handed in. In the handbook it says hardcopies in by week 4 but on the email we got sent out it says week 6. Can you shed any light on this for me at all? feel free to have a look at my blog...any feedback would be good. cheers x
