"At any one time, seven ravens are kept captive in the Tower of London, following the superstition that the Monarchy will fall if they are not there to protect the Crown."
I love the buzz of the City at dusk and the stunning architecture along the cityscape. It really makes me excited to live in London.

Fighting Weight
Step into the ring with Jodie Scott: she's got a killer right hook, a questionable walkout playlist, and an Alexa that won't stop calling her fat. With only three weeks to drop a weight class, she's training for the fight of her life. But when you're your own worst sparring partner, not all knockouts happen in the ring. Fighting Weight by Madeleine Palander is a darkly comedic one-woman show about boxing, appetite, and the brutal suppression of women's desires. It's a punch against the systems that teach women to shrink: in body, voice and desire. After an incredible period of R&D with director Hope Wishart, the show returns with expanded physical storytelling and deeper thematic ambition. 18th and 19th of March | Theatre DeliRead more
