What I loved about that was the unpretentioisness of the actress. Acknowledging that at the end of the day acting is just a job like any other abs sometimes you just have to pay the bills.

Oh that was great and all kinds of painful at the same time! Having been in an similar situation you can’t do anything but laugh at yourself. I wonder who it was? Here’s me thinking all these famous people get comped tickets.

Someone who started with black hair then later went blonde. Famous for screen, has also performed in a “prestigious off-West End venue” (Donmar? Court?)

Accidental initiator of the great Horse Pun War of 2019.

I swear I’ve read that before. Must be a very similar story.
