London, July 28 (ANI): Jude Law has become a patron of the National Youth Music Theatre - where it all began for the accomplished actor.
NYMT gave Law his first big break in 1987 at the age of 14.
He performed in a variety of productions before landing his first West End role in Jean Cocteau’s Les Parents Terribles.
The play was later renamed Indiscretions and transferred to Broadway, where Law earned his first Tony Award nomination.
Now Law has rejoined as a patron to help new actors take the stage.
“The National Youth Music Theatre has a very special place in my affections. I’ve many fond memories of my time spent with the company and I’m thrilled to be supporting them and the next generation of theatremakers, particularly with NYMT’s exciting plans for the future,” The Daily Star quoted the actor as saying.
