BONUS EPISODE 2: Meet The Graduates 2 #GradsAtCad
In the second of two bonus episodes of Don't Call Us, We'll Call You, we celebrate 'GRADUATES AT CADOGAN HALL' streaming from Friday 26th March 2021. We meet a selection of performers who are starring in the show to hear about what it's been like leaving their education in the middle of a pandemic. We also talk to Liam Gartland & Alice Croft of The Grad Fest, and the youngest Female producer on the West End, Ameena Hamid on why producing these opportunities is so important.
It's a slightly different, but utterly joyous episode full of hope, humour and human stories about how training and students have adapted during COVID-19.
What are their anxieties, nerves, and hopes for the future of the arts, what their optimism for auditions are like (and lots of disasters!), and how they've kept their mental health in check and supported each other in this unknown time.
