Had fun recording this short #monologue about a #JohnConstable painting earlier this week. It’s due to be broadcast on a local radio station in the West Country in January 😊

I’d love the community/amateur #theatre world to read these two Lazy Bee Scripts plays. Any thoughts on how to achieve this?

A production shot of my short play UNFORGETTABLE being performed in #Sydney at Short+Sweet 2015 which popped up as a Facebook memory today! The man has amnesia and the woman is reading his palm. I had to research #palmistry (a fascinating subject) to write this play!

Does anyone know know the correct way to pronounce “Laodicean” and/or a word it rhymes with?
