During the week I have a 9-5 job working for the Air Ambulance KSS, but in my free time I tend to spend my time socializing with my other half, friends, and family and horse riding. But also a lot of my spare time goes a lot into theatre.<\/p>\n<p>I have a huge interest in theatre, especially musical theatre and this has been for as long as I can remember. My first ever show was Joseph and his Amazing Technicolor Dream at the London Palladium, and little did my mum and dad know what they were getting me\u00a0into.

Here I get to attend the current touring productions of musicals and plays.
