West Lothian teenager set to take to the stage as he pursues acting degree at prestigious school

A West Lothian teenager is set to pursue a career in musical theatre after being inspired by an initiative to encourage more males in the industry.
Josh Ure, a former pupil of James Young High School, is preparing to enter the second year of training for a BA (Hons) Acting qualification at The MGA Academy of Performing Arts in Edinburgh.
The 18 year old applied for a place at the leading school after signing up for a week-long workshop as part of an initiative to encourage more males to get into the industry.

He said:“At that age I never really understood the theatre industry or how to get into it.
“Growing up, boys often get told that singing and dancing is not for them.
“After taking part in Lads Week at The MGA Academy, I felt heard and represented.
“Usually, you finish a workshop and that’s it - there’s no follow-up. But I left Lads Week with a big list of plays, monologues and songs I could learn from, and plans to progress.”
Josh has already performed in several amateur productions - voicing his appreciation of The MGA Academy’s flexibility in allowing students to take on personal projects alongside their training.
Josh added: “Training at The MGA Academy has been one of the hardest but most rewarding experiences of my life.
“It’s developing that
