Check out this wonderful write up by founding memb Check out this wonderful write up by founding member @tratcliffe15 on the R&D we did last year of his new play EVELYN 👀 and here’s some lovely pictures to go with it!

“A writer, director and a musician are in a room with a group of actors exploring a new play…

Sounds like the start of a bad joke. A completely foreign concept given the year we’ve all endured.

Actors get together on Zoom to read a bonkers play to an audience who you desperately hope will keep their video turned off throughout…

Sounds like theatre in 2020.”

Thank you so much to the incredible actors and creatives involved!
