So many visions were shared through this from its earliest origins. Way ahead of its time combining public and private investment, local talent and international tours, education, community, health, digital... (All the things funders still say are important.)

A great show: like Pullman meets Marvel meets War Horse meets Gruffalo meets Wicked meets Motionhouse... congrats The Rep

Great to see the Belgrade Theatre rebrand out there after many months of development. A pleasure to work closely alongside @RayClenshaw & Rob Macpherson on this – lots more to come! Pictured is an initial concept stage booklet, from Summer 2023.

An amazing three-and-a-half weeks after months of planning... It's been great seeing a fourfold increase in audiences for this expanding Leicestershire festival. #artsmarketing
