Never underestimate the importance of first impressions. Attending elocution classes from a very young age gave me the self-confidence to become the person I am today, though at the time I was unaware of how they would help me in later years.

My passion has always been to perform and be onstage, but I did not believe in my abilities and talent. Hence, after graduation I joined a Law Firm, and was stuck in a nine to five job. One day I came across a quote from Walt Disney “if you can dream it, you can do […]

For some reason, performing always came easy to me. I’d like to think it’s because I was always that kid in school that was first to raise their hand in order read out loud to the class. But, maybe it’s because my family used to make all the kids sing and dance before getting our […]

From an early age, I knew I was a performer, but I was raised to believe that it was unrealistic to even think about a career in the arts. It wasn’t until late in high school that my drama teacher helped me realise that performing was what I was meant to do. Ever since then, […]

Storytelling is a human instinct. Yuval’s Noah Harari “Sapiens: A Brief History of Humankind” reflects that the ability of our species to devise fiction is a key feature that defines us. My name is Martha McKinney, I am from Belfast and am excited to be part of the Studio Starlit team. I started my speech […]

I come from a family of artists, musicians, and teachers. Performance became very prevalent in my life at a young age, whether it was playing the piano at my Grandmother’s recitals, rehearsing my lines religiously for an upcoming production, or just reciting a poem I had written at school assembly. When I moved to Hong […]
