Here are some testimonials from actors I teach acting to every week, developing their craft, preparing them for auditions and undoing a lot of bad habits and fears that can form during training. To take classes with me, visit https://t.co/87dxMCn4Q1

I have a whole day working with actors on showreel material, audition sides & giving practical approaches to preparing for a character with a focus on how to see as a character, rather than just being dialogue driven. Take classes with me by visiting https://t.co/jZUA9L9syM

I am HIV+.

I'm not surviving. I'm thriving.

I can't pass the virus on.

I'm grateful to the NHS for the pill a day and care which keeps me healthy.

I honour all those we have lost.

And fight for those in the world who need what I have to live.

I will be directing @operasynergy’s inaugural production of La Bohème. Set during the cost of living crisis, we’ll see Puccini’s characters endeavouring to love, survive & fulfil their artistic aspirations under trickle-down economics & the freezing cold.

Our first review for STEVE at the @7DialsPlayhouse is in from @WhatsOnStage and they’ve awarded us… ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️’s!

“This play whizzes by, full to the brim with (vodka) stingers and heart. I'll drink to that!”

[Andrew Keates @andrewkeates]

It’s finally time to announce our full cast for @Steve_ThePlay by @mark10003 (Mark Gerrard) at the @7DialsPlayhouse. We have already announced @jennarusselluk (Jenna Russell) and @semadivad (David Ames), but now it’s time to learn who else will be sharing the stage with them…

[Andrew Keates @andrewkeates]

Thank you to @eddiemair and @LBC for having me on his show discussing the plights facing theatres due to Covid-19. I mention @AriaEnts The Rhythmics, the importance of pantomime and the abuse ushers are facing, such as my friend @JayWParsons.

Listen to LBC on @GlobalPlayer.

I made this last year during lockdown and it was featured in The Stage’s top Christmas gifts guide for actors and those who love the performing arts. Get the last few remaining copies by visiting my online art shop.

[Andrew Keates @andrewkeates]

I have some rather lovely news. Due to popular demand, we have decided to extend the run of Steve by Mark Gerrard directed by me at the @7DialsPlayhouse starring @jennarusselluk and @semadivad with more cast to announce.

🗓 8 Feb - 19 March 2021

[Andrew Keates @andrewkeates]

In February 2022 I will be directing the European premier of STEVE by Mark Gerrard starring DAVID AMES & JENNA RUSSELL at the brand new @7dialsplayhouse. The first production in the history of the newly rebranded theatre set to be the only studio receiving house in the West End.

[Andrew Keates @andrewkeates]

A little teaser of the show I’m currently directing for @secretcinema, #Ghostbusters: The Gates of Gozer.

Will YOU answer the call?

[Andrew Keates @andrewkeates]

I’m very happy to say I will be directing a beautiful European premier of an LGBTQ+ play at a brand new Central London theatre (yet to be announced!) about older gay people and the challenges we face in open/monogamous relationships. Casting breakdown is on @SpotlightUK now 🏳️‍🌈

[Andrew Keates @andrewkeates]

If you ever saw any of my plays, the music would have been written by my friend Matthew Strachan. This news is very painful to receive and I will miss my talented friend for as long as I will live. Silence is ringing in my ears. Rest in peace Matthew.
