Notes from the Director - Matthew Hewitt.

The best actors simply recreate life, but honestly. Life is interesting, acting isn’t. The best actors know that life is a simply series of re-actions and therefore acting is also just that. All acting is based on truth, don’t ‘act’ emotion, just ‘know’ what it is and it will be there in your performance. Actors should change the atmosphere of a room when performing – feel it, don’t just think it and trust yourself that it’s enough, because it will be. The company of actors who form this cast and study under my direction at Grantham College and University Centre understand this, and together we have all created a piece of theatre which we believe is an immersive theatrical experience for you, our audience.

Matthew trained at The London Academy and later at The Bristol Old Vic Theatre School. He has worked extensively in musical theatre and television acquiring West End credits as Sammy in Blood Brothers, Rooster Hannigan in Annie and Joe Vegas in Fame. National and world tours of Walking on Sunshine, From a Jack to a King, Wake up Little Suzie, In the Midnight Hour, One Step Beyond, Art, Audacity, Bouncers, Misery and has worked on mainstream television for the BBC, ITV and Channel 4.

Matthew has also directed and produced around two hundred productions including A Chorus Line, Blood Brothers, Oliver, The Wedding Singer, Spring Awakening, Miss Saigon, Chess, Les Misérables School Edition, Jesus Christ Superstar @ St Wulframs, A Midsummer Night’s Dream and Romeo and Juliet – Shakespeare in the Park - He is Head of Acting for HND in Performing Arts at Grantham College and University Centre.
