Well it’s not just the sun that’s shining! A little glow up on our little book! #TheMakingOfAMan is the book for your dad, brother, colleague and lover. We urgently need a conversation about masculinity in this country and how we raise our children and the next generation! Racism, homophobia and misogyny run riot online and in traditional media. Let’s do better. “It is easier to build strong children than to repair broken men” Pre-order your paperback for July 20th and let’s start a conversation. Thank you to everyone who has supported so far and I can’t wait to hear your thoughts! #TheMakingOfAMan #Paperback #Masculinity #BlackLivesMatter #BlackLivesStillMatter #Pride #SimonAndSchuster

I still can’t find the words, sis. I miss you more than I yet feel I’ve been able to communicate in words that do you justice. But I have felt you here. In how friends and family have shown up for me. In the moments when my guard is down and you pop up at just the right time to lift my spirits. But more than anything in the moments when other people have needed me and I have found strength to be as present for them as you somehow always managed to be. You made us all feel like the world was full of possibilities we didn’t dare dream of. Your grace and patience seemed boundless. I hope those who know me will know you through my attempts to be more Dani; encouraging always, taking time and showing love. But I’d be lying if I said the thought of not hearing that laugh again will not continue to be one of life’s tragedies. We love you Dani.

Merry Christmas folx! Immensely proud of this production @leedsplayhouse with the most fantastic cast. If you’re up this side of the world, you won’t want to miss it. This production matches the top tier production quality with the heart and tenderness of all involved with a lovely spin on the original material whilst maintaining the messaging at its core. I know we’re nearly sold out, but would be good to see some familiar faces. #MerryChristmas #Twixmas #ChristmasCarol #LeedsPlayhouse #Scrooge

And with that it’s been another 365 days! Merry Christmas to you and yours. Work this year means I can’t spend Christmas with the person I’ll be spending the rest of my Christmasses with, but I hope you all find a moment to connect with those who love and care about you. Christmas can be such a funny ol time of year with pressure to reflect on the past 12 months and for some of us complicated family dynamics. Whichever way you celebrate or don’t, may you be held in the knowledge that you are loved, seen and valued and may our connections over the year to come grow ever deeper. Community is needed now more than ever. Perennial thanks to @gemmacorrell for the 🎄🎨 I return to year after year. #MerryChristmas #TwasTheNightBeforeChristmas #ChristmasEve

HAPPY CARNIVAL!!! Catch a whine, enjoy the vibes, keep safe and know your rights if interacting with police. Section 60 in effect means you might get stopped. Know your rights and pass this on to pals so they know theirs. Have the best time. #NottingHillCarnival #NHC #TheBestBankHoliday

Proud to have played a small role in it. 1. The best character entrance in MT history (Fight me) 2. Finishing our last run in the rehearsal room 3. Just before we opened. 4. The Schulyer sisters 5. Oliviers Joy 6. Bringing the little man to the show 7. Commander of Chiefs! 8. Generalee Speaking 9. Two of the best actors of our generation. 10. Rolling with Royalty 11. The humblest of maestros and an icon 12. Always meet your idols 13. Hanging with the ensemble 14. Supporting the ensemble 15. Immaculate vibes 16. Last night vibes 17. My rock throughout the whole process 18. Happy July 4th 19. The number of times we practiced this harmony 🥲🥲😂🫢👀 #IYKYK Here’s to another decade of this show. Here’s to the next generation seeing themselves represented. Here’s to being a part of the narrative even when people try to erase you. #Hamilton #Hamilten
