Megan Kirsty McLean
Hi, I’m Megan and I’ve had a love for acting all my life. It’s my passion and has always been something that felt natural to me. I have lots of theatre experience, both musical theatre and straight acting, as well as training in performing on screen. I am hard working, a good listener and a team player. I have played dark and serious characters, as well as eccentric and comedic ones. I’m currently completing my grade 7 acting exam with LAMDA, as well as my GCSE drama which I’m predicted an A* in. I love the escapism of performing and exploring new characters and stories, and I believe that the arts are so important-being able to connect with people and make them think and feel so many different things.
