So unbelievably thrilled and grateful to have won an Olivier Award alongside the incredible @paulesomc for our work on 'Oliver!'
There are so many people who worked and continue to work so hard on this brilliant show - on stage, backstage and front of house - and this award is testament to every single one of them. It was a collective, collaborative effort from day 1 and I'm so lucky to have been able to share the process of making the show with so many brilliant people. It takes a village!
Paule has done so much for my career and opened unimaginable doors for me - I am so so grateful.
So proud of this show and immensely grateful for the opportunity to work with such an amazing team and collaborate with @paulesomc

I spent all of drama school sat next to @its.samstagram sharing a desk in the design studio, talking about life, theatre & lighting, desperately trying to copy him because he knew so much more than me....so it's very fitting he let me join this brilliant show and tackle it as a co-design as it moves into the Marylebone Theatre. Putting together this design with him felt like stepping into a time machine back to that desk. There's really nothing better than making theatre with your mates.
Obviously all the good bits are him...the rest is me.
