🌟 SWISH ALUMNI SUCCESS! 🌟

A huge congratulations to Swish alumnus Ben Cain on landing his latest acting role! 🎭
We were so touched to receive this lovely message from Ben:

“Hi Tina, I really hope you’re well! I wanted to let you and Swish know that I have booked an acting job! Swish helped put me in the position I’m in today! All the best.” ❤️

Ben has recently graduated from the prestigious Bristol Old Vic Theatre School and is set to make his professional debut as Tommo Peaceful in the acclaimed one-person production of Private Peaceful, adapted from Michael Morpurgo’s beloved novel by Simon Reade.

Watching our students grow from their first steps on stage to professional performers is one of the greatest joys of what we do. 🤗

🌟 THE NEXT CHAPTER BEGINS… 🌟

A huge congratulations to Ben, who has gained places at both LAMDA Foundation and The Royal Central School of Speech and Drama – an incredible achievement! 👏

Ben has chosen to continue his training at Central this September, and we couldn’t be prouder. To top it all off, Ben has recently achieved a Distinction in his Gold LAMDA examination, scoring an outstanding 94 marks! 🌟

His examiner commented:
“You have a striking talent… You have a way of making each character your own. Your voice is strong, and your timing and sense of pauses is extremely effective. Very well done and good luck for the future.”

It’s been a privilege to watch Ben grow into such a talented performer. We know his hard work and dedication will take him far, and we can’t wait to see what the future holds.
