There was a form I had to fill out at college, which asked you to self-assess various aspects of your nature. They were: Communication Skills, Team Work, Work Ethic, Technical Skills, Health and Safety. What happened was this: at the end of every six week rotation in college, studying something like construction or wardrobe, your …

So this is a new and interesting experience. I’ve never done a sponsored… well, sponsored anything before, really, and I’ve certainly never asked anyone who wasn’t a close family friend or who hadn’t just lost at chess to me to participate… but!

Oh, but these made me happy… I was going to, at this point, discuss the pros and cons of street art, but to be honest, I struggle heavily to see that many cons. I am fully aware of the fact that a lot of the painting done on our streets is illegal, and cannot therefore …

I haven’t posted for a while, and as always, this is because I’ve been in a technical rehearsal and unbelievably busy. But! At long last I’m back at the wordface, and figured I’d take this time to say what I’ve been working on, and to add that actually, I think it’s very good. It’s a …

“Come to Streatham and fly kites!” said a man known as TLC. And so myself and my Chess/Swimming Buddy did! I’ve not got much understanding of South London. I know that it exists – not only that, I know that it exists for far too many miles beyond the southern bank of the Thames than …

I used to hate the half. The half, as it is called, is that mysterious moment thirty five minutes before a show goes up in a theatre, when stage management come onto the intercom and tell everyone to stop lounging around, get their boots on and generally start planning for a show. Actors get into …

This isn’t actually a post about the Tube – the underground network in London – but rather, for the first, and probably the last for a long time in my career, a link to a documentary about the Tube itself, for anyone who can access BBC iPlayer. I almost never link to active links elsewhere …

Spring has come to London, at long last. I cannot say how relieved I am. I am plagued by poor circulation for six months of the year, and finally, at long last, I can stop worrying about my fingers turning blue. Leaves are coming out on the trees, the cherry blossom is starting to bloom, …

The downside about trying to take photos during a dress rehearsal, is that you’re usually too busy adjusting intensities and moves during the complicated bits, to actually get very good photos. But! In a spirit of ‘oh hell here we go’ here are some of the photos from West Side Story, the Show That Ate …
