Really living my full Jacobean fantasy here as Gamache! He feels so expensive/fabulous that you have no choice but to look and take him all in 🤣 absolutely in love with this character ♥️ #rohdonq #theroyalballet #jacobean

And another season @RoyalOperaHouse comes to an end for me. It’s been a diverse one having played a Cab Driver, a Nutcracker, a Bluebird, a Sister and a Prince amongst other things. Amazing how quickly 15 yrs has gone by but exciting to see what the future has in store.

So much ♥️ for this little sister! It’s been so wonderful creating this character and having the chance to play someone so different and ridiculous but there is a heart there with her own hopes and dreams. Looking forward to her last outing this weekend ♥️ 📸 by Andrej Uspenski

An absolute joy to debut as a Step Sister in #rohcinderella alongside the gorgeous and hilarious Bennet Gartside I’ve had so much fun developing this character, finding out all her quirks and living through her dreams of success. Can’t wait to dive back into this wonderful story!

Loved my last adventure (of this run) into the world of Mayerling last night. Bratfisch is one of my favourite roles so a little sad to hang up my top hat for now 🎩 until next time! #ROHMayerling
