#EXHIBITION #REVIEW William Eggleston: All That Goes Unnoticed/ Sanlé Sory: Colour Years @TPGallery 'their photographic cartwheels across the colour spectrum will bring joy and some much-needed Vitamin D' ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ thereviewshub.com/william-eg… #London
Faye Dunaway Eats Egg. This 1980 commercial for Parco may have informed my short dark play for Theatre in the Library which could be called Woman Eats Egg. Who doesn’t love protein? ⬇️

Like Joe Pesci in Capri pants - Gillian Anderson is stunning in Who’s Afraid of Virginia Woolf - my 5 star review here:

Critics Choice Nomination
Tartuffe (Remixed) @MaryleboneTHLDN
Transposing the action to an African-Caribbean household gives Moliere's satirical comedy new relevance. This remixed production starring Mark Rylance is funny, entertaining & accessible.

Let’s all do this. And the weather men and women should also it.
Care by Alexander Zeldin at @youngvictheatre is devastating, heart-stopping, brave and brilliant. I haven’t cried so much since Tarka the Otter. (Otters feature btw) An amazing cast with several performers in their 90s, this is an astounding piece of work. Go see!
You can emerge at any age! Super chuffed to kick of 2026 by being long listed for the Tony Craze Award.
Congratulations to all the writers on Soho Theatre Writers Lab 2025 and the inspiring teaching team who made it such a fun & inspiring experience.
