Julie Walters, 64, is worried that acting is becoming a profession only open to the wealthy.

The star is concerned that young Brits who may be interested in an acting career are being put off because they can’t afford to go to drama school. She told the Daily Mirror: “Now the theatre is dying out, where do kids start out? They have to pay a lot to go to drama school. But working class kids can’t afford that. You can’t get a grant.”
