Hi everyone! So, it’s all a bit real now: I’m fundraising for Acting For Others with a readathon. I wanted to drop by with a little teaser video for you! I set up my fundraising page today and ALREADY had donations before reading a word, so thankyou, you lovely folk ❤ To reiterate the […]
Hi all, I hope everyone’s doing ok in these strange, uncertain times- I just wanted to drop by with an idea I’ve had to see if it had enough interest to be worthwhile. You might remember that back in May, I took part in Read For The Globe and had the BEST time sharing my love of […]
Jason Robert Brown is responsible for one of my all time favourite musicals (Bridges of Madison County) and since falling for that show deeply with all my heart and soul, I’ve made it a mission of mine to acquaint myself with more of his work. Lockdown has been very good to me on this score: […]
