how it started 🥹 ➡️➡️➡️ how it’s going 😝

we open TOMORROW @ 7pm @riversidestudioslondon

it’s been a beautiful journey bringing “Eggs Aren’t That Easy To Make” to life from a rehearsed reading in a basement @theglitch_se1 at the very last vault festival (aka “a pinch of vault”) back in 2024. to previews @sevendialsplayhouse then a critically acclaimed edinburgh fringe run at our fave @underbellyedinburgh in august 2025. now we’re heading to the beautiful @riversidestudioslondon and we could not be more excited to open the show tomorrow! 😝💛✨

it truly takes a village to get a fringe show off the ground (especially in these difficult times) and we could not have done it without the passion and enthusiasm of everyone who’s been involved in the project every step of the way 💛✨ thank to you to everyone involved in the r & ds that helped us figure out the show, the venues who believed in us (special shoutout to @maybefrances & @cameronasaa), @counterminers for helping make our fringe dream a reality (we ❤️ u), everyone who donated to our go fund me, the audiences who came in london & edinburgh (esp the gays who came in full force 💪) and to our amazing actors & production team without whom nothing would happen.

thank you so much to everyone who has booked already! shocked and grateful that our press night on thursday has already SOLD OUT 👀🥹❤️‍🔥🤟 tickets still available for tomorrow and the rest of the run (tho some nights are selling quickly) so get them quick! any spreading of the word would be massively appreciated too 🫶💫

I still have no idea how to navigate the personal/professional split on here, but over the last year I've worked with people who walk on water and never posted pictures of stuff I loved directing so here we are !! there's been plenty of bad between the good but it would be remiss to not celebrate a bit before we go again (please hire me) (please)
