Acting Careers Chat With Alumna

On Tuesday morning, alumna Honey Gabriel came into school to talk to a group of Year 9 and 10 pupils about her career as an Actor and Voiceover Artist. The event took a Q&A format, and, over croissants and juice, pupils asked lots of excellent questions about what a career in Acting is like.

Honey shared some of the challenges and the high points of her career, giving pupils a positive and realistic view of working in the arts. It was interesting to hear how Honey had not thought about a career in Acting while at Croydon High and, in fact, first worked in Private Equity!

Honey is now carving out a career for herself, having graduated from Drama Studio London during the pandemic, starting her career with virtual productions during lockdown. Honey was incredibly inspiring, showing our pupils what can be achieved with tenacity, determination and hard work.
