LETTERS I HAVEN’T WRITTEN premiered yesterday @snapemaltings to a standing ovation. @gwynethherbert is extraordinary, as is the entire company. I am so proud. We’re now on tour for a week - Oxford, London, Milton Keynes, Cardiff & Hastings - please do catch us where you can!

Here are the dates for our show LETTERS I HAVEN’T WRITTEN, touring in October. A soul-affirming, smile-inducing, action-energising songfest written and performed by the awesome @gwynethherbert, set by @tomrogersdesign, video by Will Duke, and I’m directing. Much needed soul food!

The UK is the only country in Europe that detains people *indefinitely* under immigration rules. In 2017, 27000 people were held in this way. Have a listen to this incredible arts project with @RefugeeTales, telling their stories, raising their voices...

With @carmitstead, proud to be walking with @RefugeeTales on day four of the #RefugeeTales walk against illegal indefinite detention in the UK, recording for @GuardianBooks podcast. Today is Chingford -> Stoke Newington.

So pleased to be participating in the three day online platform on ‘Arts, Culture and Conflict Transformation’, led by @peacedirect @DAHTeatar @Crearvalelapena A vibrant conversation between fascinating people sharing thoughts, insights and wisdom from all around the world...
