Kishore

Which A Levels did you study?

I studied English Literature, Geography and History.

If you went to university, where did you go and what did you study? If you didn’t go to university, what did you do instead?

I took a BA in English Literature at Durham University before training on the three-year MA in Acting at Guildhall School of Music & Drama.

What are you doing now and what plans do you have for the future?

I recently graduated from drama school and now work as a professional actor appearing on stage and screen.

What influence has Lancing College had on your life?

I don’t think I would be pursuing a career as an actor were it not for Lancing and the incredible dramatic education I received there. A lot of the skills I still use today were introduced in the classroom and honed on stage in the theatre.

What advice would you give to a new pupil who is about to start at Lancing?

Any chance you get to do something, do it. Be kind to each other. Don’t worry about getting stuff right.
