So that’s a wrap on Comedy of Errors (4th time I’ve directed it!). Had such a lovely cast and crew - there’s something very special about open-air theatre. And doing it in the park where Joy has her memorial tree made it even more so. #doodleaday #loveshakespeare #lovetheatre
Directing the play for the 5th time - I love how working with a new cast can unlock fresh discoveries and comedy. Let the journey commence! #doodleaday #loveshakespeare
As usual, The Bridge Theatre doesn’t disappoint. Clear, concise, modern staging of Richard II (which can sometimes be a bit of a slog, if I’m honest!)… and they do a mean Eccles Cake! #doodleaday #loveshakespeare #lovetheatre
And that’s just some of the roles I’ve been lucky enough to play over the years… (wonder how many you can spot?!) #doodleaday #loveshakespeare
My happy place… #doodleaday #lovetheatre #loveshakespeare
A riotous, energetic, colourful production, full of banging ‘80s tunes and cheeky ad-libs. Glorious fun to be a part of. #doodleaday #loveshakespeare #lovetheatre
Two households, both alike in dignity,
(In our Kingdom, where we lay our scene),
From ancient grudge break to new mutiny,
Where civil blood makes civil hands unclean. #timeforchange #timeforarevolution The two-party system SUCKS! #democracy #please #loveshakespeare youtu.be/beV56hp4T3w?...
With the play I’m directing a week and a half from opening, it’s lovely to be on the ‘other side’ again. In my happy place… #doodleaday #loveshakespeare
In the cafe whilst Ben’s at his climbing club, getting funny looks as I mutter to myself!
(“Dost thou think, because thou art virtuous, there shall be no more cakes and ale?”) #doodleaday #loveshakespeare archway theatre, Horley.
Hopefully the start of another fun ride - will find out in a few days. Love the play so much. #doodleaday #loveshakespeare
