Brick Lane Haven't updated this for a while; been so busy with The Daughter. We are currently in a cavernous warehouse in Brick Lane, East London and below is a video I took on the days of the get in - two very long days! The space is incredible. It's not every day you get to work in an abandoned brewery! However, old abandoned buildings obviously come with their own unique problems, like on press night when a large portion of the roof decided to leak water and all but drown out the voices of the actors.

Glorious York Well, the final day of York and what a wonderful week it has been. The city is a maze of quaint little tea rooms and delicious chocolate shops and it’s been so easy to waste away the days just pottering around in the wonderful sunshine we’ve had. The show opened on Thur to an almost full house and the reaction from the audience was positive from what I can gather. We are also going to be featured in the Independent which is quite exciting too. Andy has been here all week, helping out on the show and it’s been great to spend some proper time with him. We have also been spending some time with the cast and crew of the other show at the York Theatre Royal and yesterday we joined their intense 90 minute warm up which is as long as out entire show! Needless to say we were all truly knackered, but not to let down the side, we carried on until the bitter end. It made our quick-game-of-fuzzy-duck-warm-up look pathetic! Off to Leister tomorrow and twill be the first time I have driven the van on my own, so let’s hope I actually find the bloody place!
