A new short film has been released, made by the community affected by the shock closure of a Wigan drama school.
Last Monday (4 April), the Academy of Live and Recorded Arts (ALRA) announced its sudden closure, which left students, staff and alumni reeling. Citing that it was no longer "financially viable". The school closed both of its campuses in Wigan and Wandsworth, London and ceased all teaching and activities.
And now an ex-teacher at ALRA, Lewis Fernandez, has released his short film, Glass Houses , which features actors from the drama school.
