HAPPY NEW YEAR ALL

Confidence to write

quote4-wI am a firm believer in the power of positive thinking. And I don’t mean lying back on the couch, just poring over Pinterest, Instagram or Facebook and liking and sharing quotes about positive living. You’ve got to clarify what you want to do. Then you’ve got to take small steps to achieve your goals. Now, when it comes to creative writing, I really believe that if you can talk, you can write. To become a writer, you must simply write. And you simply must read. Enjoy the journey. It can be frustrating but oh so enriching and rewarding too.

https://plus.google.com/+ActTheMaggot/posts/MyPaP4CanceThis is how it rolls at Act The Maggot. You take a beginner’s acting class thinking how scary it is and you have a blast learning improvisation and meeting great new people. So, you decide to go to the improvers’ class and work on text and hey presto you end up on stage in front of a live audience. It is so amazing what we can do for ourselves if we take a leap of faith and just go for it. The key is “baby steps”. It is such a buzz to perform live. It is so rewarding, not to mention the fun factor.

We are so proud of our Level 2 maggots who performed last Thursday night to a full house. What a great night. Season’s Greetings all. Have a read if you want more information on next year’s beginners acting or creative writing courses. We are also offering more opportunities to perform live on stage in the Improvers class. You can buy course vouchers for friends and loved ones either. So take a look around and get in touch. Email us at actthemaggot@gmail.com to book your place.

Season’s Greetings
