Working on a musical remotely with ppl scattered around the Uk & Malta means that We have yet to meet in person,so those in the Uk who don’t know me probably think of me as the person who cries at literally EVERYTHING & for that I blame @LukeSaydon @GodhwaniVikesh @itsmartavella

Today is my last day @MuseumofLondon. Its been an incredible 3 years & I’m so thankful for amazing colleagues & joyous moments. But best of all has been beautiful encounters with those affected by dementia who have taught me so much. @LDN_Culture @alzheimerssoc #dementia

The playfully macabre musical #TheNaughtyCarriageOnTheOrphanTrain by @LukeSaydon is a cautionary tale that warns of the dangers of not being naughty. It's about a child’s struggle to retain curiosity in a world that suppresses it. #BEAM2021 #musicaltheatre #newwriting
