Lesley Manville takes a moment to acknowledge her fellow nominees while accepting the Tony Award for Leading Actress in a Play:
“Would somebody like to write a play for five women? We are quite bankable, you know.”
It's not just since Covid that actors are without strong vocal technique. I have been experiencing this with many actors who trained in the last 20 years. I am contemplating adding a vocal coach to my fundraising plans. theguardian.com/stage/2025/o…

Hello, everyone. 🙂 Do you know of any published research or data that confirms there has been a reduction of classical / literary / historical theatre available to UK regional audiences? 🧐 I can see it anecdotally, but it would help to be able to quote data. Thank you! 😊😊

"We Need To Talk About Brenda" 🌟 - the one-woman show I'm directing starts its tour in LICHFIELD at @thehubatstmarys on Thursday April 10. 🌟 Below is a little backstory.....
It’s PMD Awareness Month.
In 2019, I was diagnosed with PMDD. I felt alone, misunderstood, exhausted.
Tomorrow, I debut We Need To Talk About Brenda—a raw, funny show about PMDD, survival + shouting louder.
