It's been a challenging and energising month with these guys. Introducing this generation to the essence of Fosse and his obvious influence over the original version of Pippin has had its ups and downs. One forgets that this is an era so far removed from this new generation of musical theatre performers, yet also so fundamental in their learning if one is to have a visceral response...

Delighted to be directing Pippin at the moment. It's a lovely challenge for this lovely cast as we lift some of Fossey's original choreography at times giving them a fabulous flavour of his genius. You can catch the show on Feb 21st and 22nd at The Gate, Cardiff. Come and support these talented young actors. So great to see Wales gaining confidence in training the young musical theatre performers...
