Tonight, Angels in America: Part One opens.
A great modern play: fierce, witty, haunted and humane. Fear, illness, love and revelation collide in a drama that still feels urgent.
Join us for opening night.

@trafalgarreleasing @OthelloInCinemas I saw the best Othello I have ever seen last night. Toby Jones, David Harewood and Caitlin Fitzgerald were as brilliant as you would expect but Vinette Robinson was, to me, a revelation as Emilia. My full review: https://t.co/DKimhLz7a9

Tomorrow.
Leicester’s Local Writers Fair.
Where I’ll be strutting my stuff (standing behind a table), selling millions of copies of Saltburn (1 or 2), and my other books, (you’ve written other books?)
Come!
10am-3pm at Leicester Central Library, Bishop St, Leicester LE1 6AA
Twenty years ago Heth & I remortgaged our house to start a publishing company that would find great new stories others thought too risky to publish.
Our books have been short listed and won awards and two have been adapted into TV series.
Today we paid that mortgage off
Magic!
