I'm a professional actress with the Acting Company, and have worked here for 6 years. I love acting and I’m always busy at
Mind the Gap. I've done some TV work as well as national theatre tours. My dream job would be working on Emmerdale, my favourite TV programme.
Chris Steel
I was on Staging Change last year, and I joined the Acting Company as an apprentice for 2007-2008. I love going to the theatre and one of my favourite things is acting. I'm lucky to have found a job that gives me the space to act!
Edmund Davies
This is my first year as an apprentice in the Acting Company, and I recently had my first taste of television work, on ITV's Cold Blood. The best thing about working for Mind the Gap's Acting Company is that each day is different. I've been helping to run workshops in schools since September.

I like acting at Mind the Gap. In 2003 I was an actor on Mind the Gap’s national tour of Don Quixote. I played Sancho Panza, a character who ate a lot of boiled eggs! I'm on a secondment to Making Theatre in 2007-2008.

I joined
Mind the Gap's Acting Company in 2001. I like acting but now I'm more interested in lighting and stage management. I'm doing stage management training as well as acting work at the moment.

I’ve been with Mind the Gap from the beginning.
I’ve toured nationally in several theatre productions. It's hard work but I love acting! The best thing about working for Mind the Gap is working with so many lovely people.
