Michael Markey

Liverpool, United Kingdom

Actor, Musician, Dancer

I am 15 years of age and I have been interested in performing arts since a young age. I attend De La Salle Performing arts school in St Helens where I am in year ten. At school I am studying for 10 GCSE's which include performing arts(drama), music and dance.Three times a week I also attend the stage factory dance school where I attend tap, jazz, street dance, musical theatre and ballet classes. I have achieved grade 6 in tap and grade 5 in ballet. I also attend weekly singing lessons. In these lessons I learn how to work on my breathing and the tone of my voice. I am regularly in shows throughout the year and I enjoy being on the stage. I also take part in many concerts where I sing to raise money for many different charities and causes. I am always looking for opportunities and to gain more experience to help me become a better performer also to gain more knowledge of the industry.
