I just wanted to say how much Johnny enjoyed In2Drama club. He loved working behind the scenes with Max and was really drawn in by the various artists who came to teach. It’s not easy to keep Johnny engaged in a club, but he was - ‘definitely going back next year, Momom!’ So, thank you In2Drama for a top-class summer club.
