What a way to end the - an actual dream come true to make the sold out board for our final show 😍

Its been a blast and I can’t quite believe it’s actually all over. I can’t even begin to process the rollercoaster journey that we’ve been on with Period Dramas, so for now I’m just going to ride the high, say some thank yous and have a sleep on the train…

Thank you to all of you who kept me sane on a daily basis throughout it all - either in person or fielding anxious messages from afar Jessy (and fam) Tom Tommy

All those who came to visit (surprise or otherwise) and so many more

To my incredible dream team at the pleasance, literally the best venue team I’m going to miss you like crazy (and of course to )

And to all those that boosted me on every day in the courtyard / dome when I was just blooming knackered

I don’t think I’ve ever felt this tired so I’m sure I have forgotten so many of the people I need to thank so please forgive me and know that I really do love and appreciate you 💜

Now for a sleep…

In all the excitement of heading up to we forgot to share our post! Luckily for you we've got a fantastic and hard hitting article from Ruby Raut to make up for it🩸
