It feels too late after the event to call this a review, but all the same I wanted to share a piece on what this show means to me. Stuart Matthew Price & Timothy Knapman’s Before After first came into my life back in 2014 – I attended the workshop performance at the St James […]
Southwark Playhouse announced today that Before After, a musical love story by Stuart Matthew Price & Timothy Knapman will be live streamed from their space The Little for three performances this September 25th and 26th as a rehearsed reading starring husband and wife Hadley Fraser and Rosalie Craig. Ami meets Ben by a tree on […]
When people ask me who my favourite musical theatre composer is, I can and will answer immediately: Sondheim.

I’d last seen Hadley being all Shakespearean and badass as Aufidius in Josie Rourke’s MAGNIFICENT production of Coriolanus […]
So now I’ve sadly come back down to earth, I thought it was about time I filled y’all in the immense Saturday I had with many of my friends and four phenomenally talented and wonderfully lovely people in my favourite city in the world. I was joined by my good friend Kristine, and seeing that […]
So this Sunday just gone was as close to my idea of perfection as I think it’s possible to get, all thanks to a combination of three things: being in my favourite city in the world, with a good majority of my fantastic friends all to see an extremely gifted artist and pure all round […]
So, I have indulged one of my childhood fantasies- on Thursday I went away to Neverland, courtesy of the brand new musical from Harvey Weinstein and an incredible team of people: Finding Neverland, based on the hit film of the same name. The musical’s current home is the Curve Theatre in Leicester, which I have […]
