This time a year ago, we were rehearsing for the premiere of 855-FOR-TRUTH in London. From sell-out performances, to 5 star reviews, to a European transfer to @thebridge.brussels , what a life this show has already had. We are grateful to the 3,000 people who came out to support. We hope it comes back to audiences very soon … 🌲❤️🔥☄️

launching ‘26

⭐️ FRINGE PLAY OF THE YEAR - 2025 ⭐️ I’ve seen lots of fantastic fringe theatre productions this year, and have decided to split them into two categories - musicals and plays - and list my top 6 instead of 5 in each. My Top 6 Fringe Plays of 2025 are: 1) FIREBIRD at King’s Head Theatre 2) STRANGE CASE OF DR JEKYLL & MR HYDE at White Bear Theatre 3) 855-FOR-TRUTH at The Hope Theatre 4) DADDY’S FIRST GAY DATE at Seven Dials Playhouse 5) GOD IS DEAD at Theatro Technis 6) UNDER THE TABLE at Barons Court Theatre Disclaimer: This is my personal opinion based on productions I saw for the first time in 2025.

2025 round up — a very joyful special year.

endless throwbacks

BIG NEWS! The 2020 film Black Beauty has been added to YouTube. You can watch it for free! It was originally available on Disney+ but was unfortunately removed back in 2023. It’s unknown how long it will stay on YouTube so go watch it ASAP! 🐴 📸: grahambart #iainglen #blackbeauty #johnmanly #mackenziefoy #ashleyavis #calamlynch #katewinslet #claireforlani #southafrica #got #gameofthrones #disneyplus #2020 #gameofthrones #jorahmormont #serjorah #serjorahmormont #residentevil #therig #thelastfront #silo #horses #reyka #mrswilson #laracroft #tombraider #lastdaysofthespaceage #quezon #tanvithegreat #castlevanianocturne #brucewayne

Black Beauty. What a joy this production was, working with extraordinary horses and the wonderful humans of our cast and crew in South Africa, 2019. I had the privilege to write, direct, as well as edit this reimagining of Anna Sewell’s timeless and forever-important classic. Working on this film is what drove my awareness to wild horses, the inspiration to form our nonprofit @wildbeautyspirit - and has transformed my life and passions, today. Black Beauty was released by Disney+ in 2020, and reached millions of children and adults around the globe with its messages of compassion and kindness toward horses, the wild world, and of course… one another. In 2023, Disney removed the film from its platform along with 70 other titles. It was pretty heartbreaking for everyone involved, not only because this is a beautiful movie crafted with such care, but because of the profound themes it carries. I love doing talks with children, illustrating how storytelling with purpose can help change our little corners of the world. Beauty was a tool to do that. Therefore - I am absolutely overjoyed to share that this week, Black Beauty has returned! We don’t know for how long, but for right now it’s available again on YouTube TV & Movies. If you love this story and what it represents, I hope you’ll head over and watch. Whether for the first time, or one of many viewings. May the spirit of Black Beauty live on, forever.
