Young performer Alexa Lee came away from a drama festival with a clutch of glittering first place trophies.

Alexa, 14, from Baildon won five awards at the Robertshaw Speech and Drama Festival in Bingley.

A student at Stage 84 theatre school in Idle, the talented teenager won first places in Bible reading, comedy verse speaking, solo characterisation, prepared reading and poetry.

“To win in five categories is an excellent result” said principal Valerie Jackson.
