🖼️ January secret postcard show for @at_the_bus at @thenorthwall

✈️ 24 hours of no sleep in Feb to party hard with best gals in Berlin for @gerardjudge 40th.

📝 Submerged in zine culture – with @bodleianlibraries zine fair in Feb and @etain_oc Zine Making course in April.

🎶 The @highermusicstate second album launch in March. They done good.

🧙‍♀️Also March, TJ, @rachbabs14 and me escaped to a chill, mystical time in Glastonbury.

🌊 The call of the Cornish coast in April - Bude’s seapool and the weirdnesses of the @museum_of_witchcraft_and_magic.

🐙Seeing ‘Unfortunate’ in April = outrageous, camp, side-splitting piece of theatre. Theatre treats this year also included ‘Withnail and I’ in May.

🌀 May’s @hayward.gallery show ‘When Forms Come Alive’ = off-the-chart sculptural forms + more times with rosiorvanes and @milazzo_greaves_ in 2025. LOVE.

Learning, creativity, connection, and milestone moments…. Continues in Part 2 🎉

1. “HEART” by Jade Anouka

• 23 Jan - 3 Feb
• @jadeanouka
• @brxhousetheatre

Yes. Thats three play texts.
Why? Because I needed to share what I’d seen with friends who couldn’t make the run.

@jadeanouka and @_gracesavage - *thank you*.

I’ve never seen (or heard) writing like it.
I’ve never bought 3 of the same play text before.
I’ve never…
Thank you for popping many first-time cherries.
And thank you to @theatrequeers for a beautiful eve.

2. “30 and OUT” by Kit Sinclair

• Feb 5th and 6th
• @sohotheatre

So (duh) of course they’ve gone and sold out.
But do as @kitsinclair0’s post suggests and get yourselves on the waiting list for tickets.
This was one of my Queer Theatre highlights from last year.

• 13 - 15 Feb
• @thehenandchickenstheatre

Trust me when I say that @j.reegs’ show is going to be one of the “must see”s at the Edinburgh Festival this year.
So why not get in early?
(Come on the 15th, and I’ll see you for a cwtch in the bar).

As well as my voice & dialect coaching, I’m also a singer and have sung in bands for over 2 decades.
This weekend I got to sing with some of my favourite musicians including my brother. We’re rehearsing for our first gig in over 10 years!

Making music is when I am at my most joyful and I am so grateful to get to be playing again after a big break!

Come see us play @trianglecafeandbar on 18th December 7.30pm. We’re raising money for @sheltercharity and @crisis_uk

"It was the last year of the twentieth century,
When I found myself in the mountainous region of northern India.”

Please watch and share this video and music track #Ramon which was written and produced over ten years ago by my brother Gez and sister Andrea and their band @hmsthefirst

During lockdown the brilliant and talented Paul and Jessica and family have turned it into something special.

For more information about HMS and to buy this track (and others) please go to my link in bio.
