Sophie said: “I am studying A-level textiles and would like a career in media/fashion so this is a great opportunity to get some experience.
“I have already started working on my design and I need to have it ready for early summer. I hope Mr Black and his team will be pleased by what I create.
“It will be great to see it live on stage being worn by the actress.”
Sophie recently watched the show in London with her textiles teacher, Tracy Constance. Afterwards, she was introduced to Mr Black who is its creator.
Follow the Faun is a production aimed at over 16s.
