The Play’s The Thing

When I was around 10, my parents took me to Stratford-Upon-Avon to see a Royal Shakespeare Company (RSC) production of Twelfth Night in an effort to get me exposed to plays and especially Shakespeare before going through the trauma of secondary school English Literature lessons. I ended up going there several times with them and my school to see Romeo & Juliet, The Merchant Of Venice, All’s Well That Ends Well, Sheridan’s Rivals, Henry IVi, and many others.

Now that I live in London, I’ve continued to see plays old and new by the National Theatre, Royal Court, RSC, Almeida, and many others…. and I find that it stretches the part of my brain that I use for editing in a most pleasing way.
