From Stress to Success!

“From Stress to Success” is a documentary-style English language program about a group of drama students who’ve recently graduated from London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art, one of the world’s leading drama schools.

The young actors have a plan – to create a theatre group and perform at the famous Edinburgh Festival, Europe’s leading cultural festival, attended by over 80.000 people of all ages and backgrounds.

When they manage to convince one of the venues at the Festival to let them stage the original play “A Red Bird Day with Picasso” the real battle starts: converting dream to reality.

“From Stress to Success” follows a charismatic aspiring young actress, Sherina, during the whole process: from fundraising events and advertising schemes to physical preparation, rehearsals, previews, opening a bank account, creating a web page and finally the trip to Edinburgh by train to open the show.

Viewers get an inside look at this exciting, challenging world of artistic creation. They accompany our protagonist in her efforts to prepare for opening night and the audience’s ovation. The series includes footage from London, Edinburgh and the Fringe Festival.

“From Stress to Success” skilfully combines education and entertainment to present a true-life portrait relevant to both young people and adults.
