On Saturday I saw #TheSwell by Isley Trans Solidarity Lynn Orange Tree Theatre and it was heartbreakingingly gorgeous, funny, tender, uncomfortable & queer. Genuinely one of the finest pieces of writing I’ve seen this year. Beautifully directed by Hannah Hauer-King. Thank you for making my heart sing.

Find out my play made the Long List for The RSC #37PlaysProject !! Wahoo! Chuffed to bits! From 2,000 to 300. Found out in the same email it didn’t make the Short List. Swings and roundabouts, peaks and troughs #thelifeofacreative #newwriting

Let me just pick my gob up off the floor. No wonder the tax return always leaves me feeling a little 😳

I had the time of my life creating ‘The Solid Life of Sugar Water’ by the wonderful Jack Thorne with the most amazing people. It’s given me and continues to give me such special memories. Forever grateful to the entire team, Orange Tree Theatre and The JMK Trust ♥️
