Acting My Way Out of Crime

Londoner Michael Balogun spent most of his early life in and out of prison for drug dealing and a firearms offence. While serving time in prison, Michael was given the opportunity to work in the kitchen at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Arts (RADA), which is one of the world's leading drama schools. It was while working at RADA that Michael was inspired to become an actor. But is it possible to act your way out of crime? Image: Michael Balogun Credit: Simon Annand
