Olly Double interviews Kent Drama graduate Storme Toolis, an actor, writer and soon-to-be drama teacher. Storme talks about being a cast regular in New Tricks, becoming the first disabled actor to play the title role in a West End production of A Day in the Death of Joe Egg, and she gives great advice on dealing with the rejection that’s an inevitable part of being a jobbing actor. She also recalls a pivotal moment from her time at Kent that influenced her future career, and explains why she’s about to become a drama teacher. She finishes by giving possibly the best answer so far to the question, ‘What would you say to people who think studying drama won’t get you a proper job?’
