Confidence Crises
So after witnessing a handful of pre-performance/audition/exam confidence crises this week, I thought I'd share this cringeworthy video with you as a bit of inspiration.

Once you've memorised it then you just need to … Continue reading Silly Thursday Tongue Twisting // “Chinese noodles, chopsticks and poodles”
