Hello there Open Clasp,
I couldnt find an email adress for you so thought that this would be the most fast and efficient way of contacting you.
Im a second year foundation dergree student at Newcastle College studying acting. We recently had a lecture on feminist theatre and were told about yourselves as part of the lesson. After looking on your website and seeing what you do in more detail i would really like to be able to attend one of your workshops if at all possible. Im currently writing an essay on feminist theatre and also need to do some sort of work- experience as part of my course.
I hope you can help me.
Many thanks Tessa Wilde
