Lifted by Beauty: Adventures in Dreaming at Rhyl / Y Rhyl

Rhyl is a town of many tales; a treasure trove of stories. Drawing upon Rhyl and its people as inspiration, Lifted by Beauty: Adventures in Dreaming is a voyage of discovery and memory, a collision of the past and the present; celebrating a place and a people on the cusp of change and transformation. This is an experience that will lead you on a walkabout, taking in the surprising places and spaces of Rhyl. Together we can imagine and dream. Mae’r Rhyl yn dref llawn straeon; trysorfa o…See More

Hi there Gavin

Hope you're well.

I have just noticed  your post regarding RATS and am extremely interested. 

My NTW page is nothing to go by, in fact this is the first time i have looked at it in a while, tending to get my online-found jobs from Spotlight.

I would love to apply for this and audition. I have a huge love for hiphop and am very knowledgeable about it. I also practice combat and martial arts and am a professionally trained dancer as well as actress.

Rhian Lewis put me on to NTW years ago after watching a performance i was in.. She may remember me :)

I can't wait to hear back from you and hopefully arrange an audition.

Bye for now

Erin Leighton
