Tired of the cold, grey weather? Feeling bluer than a smurf?
Here are our (completely medically unproven) cures for those ‘old January blues…

1. Feel great at the Tate!

3. Head to Helsinki with us
Sadly, we won’t be competing in the Hobby-horse National Championships, but we WILL be doing equally interesting things in the Finnish capital: Transitions Dance Company are performing at Theatre Academy of Uniarts as part of their 2018 tour, and we’re holding auditions for all of our dance programmes.

4. Hear yourself on the radio
If you’re an up-and-coming female creator, or a young performer playing their musical works, then submit a recording via BBC Introducing for your chance to feature in BBC Radio 3’s annual International Women’s Day celebrations.
The deadline is 8 February – so get cracking! (When submitting, select “Classical” genre otherwise the recordings won’t reach Radio 3).
5. Keep your New Year’s Resolution(s)
We’re a week into the The Place’s annual festival, which features performances and work from tons of TL alumni and students. Go enjoy a triple bill or two!
To make it easy for you to find out who’s who and how to seem them, we’ve made a list.

6. Get ready for the Gold Medal
Next Monday, 29 January, we’ll be heading to London’s Kings Place to witness six outstanding artists compete for Trinity Laban’s most prestigious prize.
Tickets have SOLD-OUT! If you haven’t manage to claim your free staff or student free, email Sophie Harvey to put your name on the waiting list.
7. Find your own path
Creative Pathways is a workshop series for our MT students and last Thursday our very own Simon Greiff visited to run a session.
This week, our second years take a writing workshop with Daniel Finn (writer of The Clockmaker’s Daughter and Animus), and third years meet top casting director Stuart Burt. January’s a good time to be a MT student.
