Pleasure working with you all! Shame I couldn't be there though, no thanks to the train strikes but understandable when people have to fight for their rights.
Our @ace_national funded R&D of Actually, Love @TheNorthWall earlier this year allowed this show to take shape. We worked with Digital 4 and @deepgiggles to create a captioned and BSL interpreted showing. Peep the captioning unit/interpreter in these pics!!

Loving the creative process and being part of a wonderful team and company.

#RobinHood & his merry band of friends... (and foes) have made it to #DerbyTheatre! 🎯 🏹
Yesterday we had the exciting opportunity of meeting the extremely talented cast & creatives of our BSL integrated Easter production - #RobinHood and the Major Oak. 👋
(1/5)
ALT The whole cast of Robin Hood and the Major Oak sat together in Derby Theatre's upper foyer.
Absolutely loved being back in the rehearsals room and what a team and amazing /talented cast! Learning so much from @SarahBrigham and @LilachYosiphon. The bonus is that I finally got to see the famous and impressive Derby Theatre after hearing about it for the last 15 years!
