Currently working on a Shakespeare-themed book for the self-help market, 'Romeo and Juliet's Guide to Life'. It's pretty short.

ALSO, @YorkShakes Festival is unfortunately soon drawing to a close BUT it was excellent this year. I loved the variety of international theatre involved. I reviewed a gorgeous Sout Korean feminist re-writing of Othello for @ArtsYorkOnline: artsyork.co.uk/love-deadline…

Thanks for all the love this week folks, and we hope everyone got to see Lynne O'Dowd's brilliant work at @YorkTheatre. The exhibition is now down. This is from the final event in the Dogrose Theatre last night - so many wonderful pieces! #YorkShakes

Just when I think I've had enough of acting for a while, these imps turn out this magic and I'm right back in the heart of the forest.

Last night I went to see All is True – Kenneth Branagh's new film, which imagines William Shakespeare's later years. Was it good? Well, I found it sad, sweet & wise. I laughed out loud quite a few times. And by the end I had tears running down my face...
