Level 3 Production Arts Practice

“I chose Cheshire College as I knew it would help me develop my confidence and make new friends. I’d head about the course from a previous student and I wanted to learn more about what goes on behind the scenes during concerts. One of the things I like most about my course is how everyone works together as a team to put on a show and create some amazing events for other people to enjoy. I would advise new students to always take any opportunity given to you during your studies. Always put 100% effort into everything you do, as the outcome is always rewarding.”
