Last night was our 100th & final performance of @kinglearwestend; a project I joined 9 months ago & saw 28 times. What a pleasure to work with the brilliant @MunbyJ, the legendary @IanMcKellen & the loveliest, most talented company at @dukeofyorksLDN. I'll miss it & them hugely.

@kinglearwestend cant really find the words for how amazing it was - we laughed and cried in equal measure and @IanMcKellen was breathtaking. It was everything I’d hoped for and more.

You spend your life *loving* a play and knowing whole scenes by heart, wondering if you’ll ever see a production do it justice, and then you see @IanMcKellen in @kinglearwestend and you think - yeah, this is it. This is the play I always knew the script could be. They’ve done it.
