Not naming names… but so disappointing to see new musicals in huge venues announced with marketing copy written almost exclusively by AI.
These teams are buzzing with creativity… until it comes to the marketing. Do better.

Enjoyed an afternoon supporting my husband in what has become the annual marker of the beginning of the festive season in our house - the garden centre Christmas concert.

Got excited because I thought there was a dog on the train, turns out it was a woman in a faux fur coat hunched over because the heating is broken. Very disappointed.

✍️🎭 Think my resolution for 2025 is going to see way more new writing. I’m lucky enough to see so much theatre, but feel I don’t actually see much new work! Any recommendations welcome!

Last night’s theatre jaunt to see friends in Hairspray at the historic Kenton Theatre in Henley.
Added bonus of a totally sold out show - and what a vibe. Nothing quite like being amongst hundreds of family and friends on a final show. So much fun!

Very excited to have started my favourite annual tradition of asking people what their least favourite Christmas song is and explaining to them why they’re wrong if they don’t pick Paul McCartney’s Wonderful Christmastime.

This is an appreciation post for whoever green lit the 2023 London Guys & Dolls soundtrack recording, but especially for whoever was behind the decision to record & release everything. All the incidental bits, the beautiful interval barbershop arrangements, even the dance party track. Sublime. ♥️🎲
