The reception was at Italia Conti. Academy of Theater Arts. Played host to a constellation of stars. Photos of Patsy Kensit Tracy Ullman. Bonnie Langford Leslie Ash. There are numerous east-enders. Countless pop stars. Then Louise Nerding. And most of the other Eternal girls. Many of the younger stars' glossy pics. Bear sugar felt tip testimonials. A kindly yet exacting woman. She's given thirty years service. Resulting in the eventual success. Of probably thousands of young performers. She's neat blonde welcoming. And very much in control. Her office on the top of a seemingly. Crumbling 50s building. Executive haven executive haven. Executive haven executive haven. Executive haven executive haven. With tea served in floral cups. The coziness inside enhanced by the. Pressing view of a council estate. Groups of students drape themselves. Over reception sautees. Remembering their posture only when her. Eyes catch theirs. They're not allowed to go up to the office. In the building's rickety lift. Some of the students must climb. To the top using stair plates. Which lead to the studio. Crash or common area very symbolic. Hayley Newton Hayley Newton. Hayley Newton Hayley Newton. Hayley Newton Hayley Newton. Hayley Newton Hayley Newton. Hayley Newton Hayley Newton. Hayley Newton Hayley Newton. Hayley Newton Hayley Newton. Hayley Newton Hayley Newton. Hayley Newton is fifteen. Cute outgoing and poised. She's been preparing for a career on the stage. Since starting ballet at two years old. By day she's a stage school student. Commuting from her home in Guildford. While her nights are filled with. Television appearances. And roles in west end musicals. Today she's having her portrait taken. And like all the activities that take place. In the Italia Conti rehearsal rooms. It's practice for successful future. "Hope you like the pictures". Offers the photographer waving in his next subject. "I'd better" she twinkles then runs off. To join her classmates. Like other exclusive London stage schools. Such as Sylvia Young's and Stella Adler's. Conti's takes talented potential-soaked tweens. As early as eleven. Grounding them in enough singing dancing. And acting lessons to create future generations. Of light entertainers. These days it's always possible. To rise from the Conti ilk. Into the world of tele-presenting and pop. "I can imagine being big I can see it. And I want to be as big as Celine Dion". Mmmmmmmhmmmm....... Mmmmmmmhmmmm......
