“Breaking through in the industry as an actor is really hard, but when you have a disability it’s even harder. I want to do more acting. I’m really passionate about that, but opportunity doesn’t come to me very often. BAFTA Breakthrough is a programme for opportunity, so I’m hoping it will provide me with more”

During the matinee yesterday, an angry man in the audience interrupted the show with an entitled rant screaming that we were “discriminating against hearing people!”. He was looking at me directly. It was shocking.
The video is the reaction when we got back on the stage after he was kicked off. We picked up from Touchstone’s line, “The more pity that fools may not speak wisely what wise men do foolishly”
In the same audience, a little deaf girl sat in the front row with her parents signing to her. Deaf members of the audience are able to sit wherever they want and whenever they want. Hearing people reading the captions, laughing and reacting to our signing on stage, coming into our world and understanding Shakespeare because of this. Two days ago, we had a BSL performance show, and 106 deaf people turn up.
This is why we do accessible theatre.
First day being 28 was on the last leg last night. Mad how my 27th has been the craziest, exciting, interesting, hardest year of my life. Forever grateful for all the love I’ve received. Thank you ❤️

Only three weeks left to see As You Like It in the #westend @sohoplace with stunning music by Michael Bruce and wonderful casts who IS the heart and the soul of the production. It is joyful, playful and so pretty! Even if you don’t understand Shakespeare, it is such an accessible show for all. It will end before you know it, so come if you can 💕
(Gutted that the film didn’t develop and cut out June Watson completely 😂, who name is worth mentioning. 87 years old and still going. What a legend, what a badass! I will try again and get photo with June properly tomorrow)
