It is with much pride and excitement that I can say: I've been accepted onto the 10wk intensive course at Chicago's Steppenwolf Theatre this summer! The company is immensely well-thought of (and seriously cool) - the show I saw when I was over in March was an absolute belter. Yes indeed. The talent that is associated this company is stellar, so I am very, very happy to be getting to study there for ten weeks. Chi-town: I will see you in June. Promise you'll be warmer than you
