A gorgeous start to the day beside the sea at Felpham, West Sussex. It’s even sunny! If I need a reason to keep on living, this is it…. So it’s the perfect antidote to anxiety and despair.

Love this pin-up pic of a past cast of @lesmisofficial, posted by Christian Edwards, formerly @westendproducer, in his professional career.
Happy birthday @lesmisofficial. I was tensing every single muscle. 🀣 #lesmiserables #lezmis #LesMiz

This was Gavin Creel in April, before his cancer diagnosis and death last week. Amazing how fast life can change.

To think this was one of his last performances. Gavin was having fun doing Mamma Mia.

This is astonishing. @realtomfrancis trying to sing the title song of @sunsetblvd as he walks through Shubert Alley in nyc: what an ordeal! Surely he can’t be singing LIVE?
if anyone from Sunset Blvd shoved me out the way in Times Square I’d kick em in the shins 😹

From last night’s cabaret return of #PhilipQuast in his intimate autobiographical show at @CrazyCoqs: he is joined by #MattRawle in a thrilling duet of β€œIn Lily’s Eyes” from THE SECRET GARDEN (in which he starred in the Australian and UK premieres of).

Last night I was privileged to see the extraordinary return of my friend #PhilipQuast to the London cabaret stage at @CrazyCoqs, after his recent formal retirement from the theatrical stage. What a privilege to see him at such close quarters. And in such glorious voice, too.

A lot of musicals are being given a second go-round in one-off concert showings right now, but GHOST IN CONCERT provided a more persuasive case for an underrated show than most. I had a genuinely enjoyable time!

All but one of the terrific cast for GHOST IN CONCERT were entirely off-book, quite an achievement for a single show only, they were thrillingly led by @OliverTompsett & @luciejones1 as Sam & Molly, their gleaming rock-star voices matched by the sincerity of their acting.

Last night’s one-off performance of GHOST IN CONCERT (which originally premiered in the West End in 2011) was less a concert than a blueprint for how to stage the show on a more intimate scale. Though I missed the seamless magic illusions of @paulkieve, everything else was there.

Farewell to #MaggieSmith, who has died, aged 89. I’m presenting her the Critics’ Circle 2015 Award for Services to the arts, which she accepted at an event in April 2016. @guardian news story: theguardian.com/film/2024/se…

When my current depression passes, I will be forever indebted to the calm and serenity provided by our regular visits to the seaside at Goring-by-sea. I am so lucky to live just 25 minutes from here.

Love this pic of Jamie Parker @DickLeFenwick photographing the audience at last night’s final performance of @NextToNormalUK!
Watch this actor with his phone on stage! Terrible behaviour. πŸ™„
