Behind the scenes of our pitch day and graduation at Mailbox, B’ham.
It was tough looking up while delivering my series pitch in front of Sir Lenny Henry and Midlands finest creatives.
Thank you Create Central and BBC for the opportunity.

After touring my film around the world last year. @Arena_Theatre screened #TheForgottenSoldier in my home town. Was great my college lectures & friends turned up. A lovely memory. @tfs_film
I was fortunate to perform at Theatre Royal Stratford East in Baiju Bawra in 2002. Because of men like Philip we had the opportunity to work on diverse material. Between rehearsals on occasion I spoke with Philip. I would of liked to listen more. Fond memories.
We are devastated to learn of the death of Philip Hedley. Philip was our Artistic Director from 1979 for 25 years. His legacy and work here, and in the wider theatre industry, was immeasurable. He will be much missed.
Yesterday was one of the most memorable days of my life. To premiere my film @britishfilminstitute & receiving such a great response was beyond words!!

Great event last night @LondonPalladium
There were many highlights but the story of Floyd, Tarantinos black father figure who influenced him to become a screenwriter and the reason he made Django Unchained was inspiring.

It’s such a treat to go to live in conversation with Tarantino.
Let me know any good questions if I get the opportunity ask tonight. #QuentinTarantino#Movies
