Shelley Young

Actor Assistant Director Theatre/Youth Teacher Writer

My name is Shelley Young (she/her). I am a recent graduate from BA Acting at Italia Conti Academy seeking to create professional connections upon completion of my training. Since writing, directing and staging a play as part of my dissertation, I have found a passion for those fields, and although would like to continue with Acting opportunities, am definitely inspired by this new creative avenue and currently seeking opportunity to ignite and expand on my Director's journey.
