Ellia Martucci Profile

I have just finished my A-level qualifications and I am planning to study BA Theatre and Performance this September. Throughout high school I have made regular contributions to theatre productions, recently I directed our school production of Machinal by Sophie Treadwell with my small year class. I decided to take on two responsibilities; directing, and acting. This required skills of leadership, creativity, and organisation as I am planning rehearsal time, choreographing the ensemble, and learning my lines for a big speaking role. I was also asked to join the cast for show performed at The Follows of Rupert Bear AGM. This experience really highlighted the dedication needed by actors. I am also an active member of my local theatre where I have taken part in biennial productions for most of my life. Our group have also been able to take part in workshops by staff from the RSC as part of our preparation for our productions. My twelve year commitment has provided great opportunity.
