Review: ★★★★★ - Operation Mincemeat at @Fortune_Theatre
With its third cast recently installed, there seems to be no stopping this homegrown spectacular

Gutted to see this close but what an impressive run for a new, original musical. Catch it before it closes if you can 🌙
Our journey to the West End has been truly extraordinary...and to celebrate, we're extending ONE more time!
But it is often said that time and tide wait for no man, and for that reason, we must end our run at @Ambtheatre on Saturday 11th October.
Final tickets just released. ⚓️

Was lucky enough to enjoy a preview screening of the filmed @DonmarWarehouse production of Next to Normal this evening. Beautifully filmed & mixed, it is able to extract the minute details that truly elevate this production. Out in September in cinemas #PRInvite @NextToNormalUK

Henry Longstaff retweeted
41% of state schools now have no GCSE drama at all.
Creativity has collapsed in eduction over the last decade, despite the last remaining teachers striving to keep arts accessible to all kids, not just lucky kids.
This #WorldTheatreDay let’s keep the pressure on to fulfil the government’s pledge to restore arts to the core curriculum
“Drama can’t fix everything, but it can help.”
This #WorldTheatreDay, listen to @mrJamesGraham discuss the importance of arts education whatsonstage.com/news/james-…

Review: ★★★★★ - The Curious Case of Benjamin Button
With a stirring actor-musician led score, heartbreaking performances and a beautifully tragic story this is a show for the ages

Review: ★★★★★ - Come From Away - UK Tour at @NewWimbTheatre
Theatre is at its most moving and powerful when it brings us together, a shared experience that reminds us of what unites us rather than divides us. @ComeFromAwayUK is the epitome of this

Benjamin Button opens for previews this Thursday and is not one to be missed. I adored catching the run at @swkplay last year and can't wait to see the show at it's new home at @Ambtheatre.
Massive thanks to @JethroCompton for his time.
