Our program boasts numerous success stories. Remarkably, two alumni have found themselves competing in the same television genre
Danielle Jawando, who completed both her undergraduate and postgraduate studies with us, now writes for prominent TV soap operas. Playwright Jonny O'Neill saw his first EastEnders episode air in September 2014.
Jawando credits her achievements to the guidance from our faculty. "I gained the courage to experiment creatively and, most significantly, to submit my work professionally," she reflects.
Her accomplishments include being considered for Emmerdale and publishing a short story during her studies. O'Neill's inaugural play, The Royal Duchess Superstore, premiered at a London theater.
