Isn't it sort of obvious? I'm a - how would Donald Trump call it? - huuuuge fan of The Big Bang Theory. It's exactly my type of humour and it never bores me, not even after binge watching all eight seasons over Christmas. Heck, I was even laughing more than ever.

Punchdrunk's The Drowned Man got me into immersive theatre and holds a special place in my heart. :-)

That's an awesome cat god pun. My avatar is La Muerte from The Book of Life. I've gone for more of a long shot than I had on WhatsOnStage because the larger size avatars here made her a bit overwhelming as a headshot. She's become particularly appropriate in the light of recent events because she's the ruler of The Land of the Remembered. |

I love these bigger avatars too, I can finally see what's in the pictures.
Mine doesn't have any particular story behind it, I just wanted a pretty, theatre-related picture. It's Josefina Gabrielle in Sheffield's The Crucible production of Me and My Girl which I really loved and still remember fondly.

I always seem to get off the tube at Leicester Square when I'm going to shows....I was clutching at straws somewhat.

I was on my way to an audition I was supposed to bring a small photo of myself to, it was my own little homage to the opening of A Chorus Line.

Mine is Geraldine McEewan in The Way of the World at the National 19995. Described as 'a landmark performance' and 'sublime' It was quite simply the funniest and most bewitching performance I have ever seen. Michael Coveney said in her obituary 'She could purr like a kitten, snap like a viper and, like Shakespeare’s Bottom, roar you as gently as any sucking dove;
I always think she was underrated, and that sometimes her refusal to be made a dame meant she appeared to be a little behind Maggie and Judi, but I loved her, and of course she will always be the definitive Lucia.

Mine was the first photo I found which was below the upload limit! The mauve beach hut is mine, on an out-of-the-way bit of the Essex coast  |

Mine is a portrait of me (painted by my partner) so if any of you see me at a theatre and you recognise me please feel free to say hello.

Having lived here for nearly 30 years, one thing I've realised is that most people outside of the West Country have no idea where Gloucester actually is. So...

I liked being able to create your own so I used that and tried to make it look like a (clean-shaven) version of me!

I experimented with a terrible avatar that included a version of my face, but I hated it. I've now moved to something much more consistent with my username. For years, people have said "you spend most your life in theatres" so when I was looking for a twitter account name a while back, I thought "what else do you find in theatres? Dust."
I try to kid myself that the dust to be found in theatres is slightly glittery and special - hence this picture.

I have legs just like Angela Lansbury.

Mine is a portrait of the real historical Constance (from 'King John'). Seemed appropriate.
