Meanwhile, Claire was in court for Witness for the Prosecution, then popped to Chelmsford to make sure everyone was having a lovely time at the ball for Pride and Prejudice* (sort of) which opens tonight - Making sure to leave time for a quick visit to (Ancient) Greece for The Bacchae, a National Theatre Schools Tour! While Carlotta was in the rehearsal room for Table 17 at the Kiln as Intimacy Director. And after a week away, Alice has been making sure all the busy bees are where they should be! 🐝
