Had a quality theatre day in #Sheffield yesterday, catching three shows! Karate Kid the Musical - Lyceum; Optmized by our brilliant Youth Theatre STYT - Playhouse; the excellent Utopia Theatre Swamp Dwellers in Rockingham Gate. They were all v different from each other, and all terrific.
I really enjoyed my recent visit to @nytofgb.bsky.social to celebrate @rampsonthemoon.bsky.social at ‘Constellations of Change’. It’s terrific that @thestage.co.uk have covered this important work too. Proud board member! www.thestage.co.uk/news/news-fe...

World Cup round the corner and I’m really enjoying @jonawils.bsky.social superb ‘The Power and the Glory’. But, particularly as the #WorldCup is partly in #Mexico, my favourite football book and number 1 recommendation is ‘This Love is Not for Cowards’ by robertandrewp.bsky.social #footballbooks

My now-annual Christmas show odyssey begins on Saturday down the road in Derby @derbytheatre.bsky.social. I love this time of year for #theatre - I love travelling around the region / country as much as I can, kids in tow, & seeing what everyone’s up to. ❄️🎄🎅🏻🎭
