Bright future for Turners Dance student Date published: 24 January 2021
Jessica Butterworth
A student at Turners Dance Studio, Rochdale, has been accepted into three of the top dance and drama schools in the country.
Jessica Butterworth, 17, has been accepted into degree programmes at Bird College, Urdang Academy, both in London, and The Wilkes Academy of Performing Arts in Swindon following successful auditions.
She has one more audition at the end of February – for Laines Theatre Arts.
Whilst Jessica was only able to attend one audition in person due to lockdown restrictions, all three schools were so impressed that they offered the student a position. Digital auditions were submitted to the other two schools and will also be submitted to Laines.
