    I played the part of Jesus in the college’s 2024 production of Superstar Live. The audition was intense, but I had a feeling I got the part as I had the right physical look. It was such a brilliant experience performing in front of a live audience!

    I got a lot of support at NWRC. I enjoy college life more than school because it offers greater freedom and you are treated like an adult.
