Happy New Year! Thought I would share this beautiful white winter's day just outside Edinburgh where I'm visiting my folks. A perfect morning to round off the festive period before heading back to London! taken in The Pentlands by @jackdrydenuk

In case you missed it, delighted to share these stunning photos by @mwalshephotography of our sold out concert for @EdgarMusical.uk on Mon!

I have been so lucky working with this incredible cast and team to bring our ghostly new musical to life, and already looking forward to our next adventure with it!

Specials thanks to @thomasfarnold and @bethclarence_, the dream team working on this show since way back in 2016 - just incredible to see how far it has come!

Musical theatre fans, we need your help! (links in bio)

I'm so excited to be producing a concert for our thrilling original musical @EdgarMusical.uk at @7DialsPlayhouse on Mon 23 Sept. Inspired by the works of Edgar Allan Poe, our show spins haunting folk melodies that weave his darkest stories into a ghostly new tale where all is not what it seems!

But to get there we need your help. If you can book a ticket, make a small donation to our crowdfunding campaign or share this video it would mean the world to me! Thanks for your support ❤️ by @jackdrydenuk

Told myself I'd make a new website in time for new year. Mission success! (Link in bio)

Defo still a work in progress, but I've made a first version and that's the main thing.

Happy Halloween! 🎃 Got my spooky fix in early with a workshop for The House of Edgar last week, a new musical based on the works of Edgar Allan Poe... more to follow soon 👀

Absolute blast to work with @BethClarence_, @ThomasFArnold, @Aitch.Wylie, @MaxCadman1, @Liv.Andrusier & Rhys Whitfield. For just one day in the rehearsal room the team absolutely smashed it out the park!

Also shout out to @PGNoden for his incredible work on casting for us and to @DanceAtticStudios for being great hosts!
