FINAL-year BA (Hons) Acting, Musical Theatre and Contemporary Theatre students at the London College of Music in Ealing presented their projects at LCM Fest.  

Spread over four evenings, LCM Fest consisted of performances, film screenings and script readings and marked the culmination of three years’ work. 

Working with industry professional Sophie Swithinbank, Contemporary Theatre and Performance students wrote their own screenplay, then cast, directed, filmed, and edited their work, called B.happi.

 “They were asked to create a piece of work about a social issue and chose to explore the dangers of internet activity that exposes a vulnerable young person to buying illicit drugs online,” explained course leader Cathy Sloan.

“The message of the film conveys that taking drugs might give you a temporary high but ultimately won’t make you happy.” 

London College of Music is part of the University of West London.
