The Rest is Noise

This is what theatre and dance audiences do: we sit in the dark, watching performances. And then, if it seems worth it, we think about what we've seen, and how it made us feel. The blog should be a conversation, so please comment on the posts and add your thoughts.

I am a writer and critic on performance, books and film and currently write for, among others, the Sunday Times and Literary Review. I'm also a lifelong Londoner: it's the perfect city for connecting to art forms that both look back and spring forward.

I'd love to hear from you, so click here to send me an email...
