Debbie Hannan
“Studying directing at RCS completely changed my path as an artist and gave me access to the creative career I dreamed of. The MACCT course developed my craft, taught me a range of skills and most vitally, developed my artistic identity. My cohort of fellow directors and actors are still collaborators over a decade later. I’m honoured to be an ambassador for MACCT, and for such a multi-faceted, inspiring place as RCS, that is an inspiration to so many.”
