I work three jobs and I’m still proud to pay taxes because I believe in care, dignity, and supporting those who need it most. But slashing £5 billion from disability benefits isn’t reform. It’s erasure.

When disabled artists vanish from our stages, it won’t be from lack of talent. It’ll be because we let the system shut them out.

I'm honoured and humbled by the privilege to amplify their voices and celebrate their courage. Theatre is friendship. Friendship is art. And that, more than any star rating, is the essence of what makes the arts so powerfully human.

Watching dance has been as healing for me as dancing itself. And guess what? Science backs it up! Let me show you how watching dance can benefit you, too.

Did you know ballet, often seen as the pinnacle of elegance, was once a tool of colonial domination?

I’ve always found those cold, judgmental reviews not just uninspiring but downright arrogant. They seem to focus more on the critic’s ego than on the art itself, and that’s never sat right with me. My passion has always been for the artists, not the critics who try to outshine the work they’re supposedly “reviewing”.
