Thank you @DownstageWrite for your great recommendation. I really enjoyed your reading - and loved writing the story in the first place. I was partly inspired by the great Louise Rennison. Thanks for putting it in the Twitter zone!

Tonight FOR BLACK BOYS begins West End previews. At dress rehearsal the team manifested the impossible: the show is even better. As an AD, if I achieve nothing else but having played small part in supporting this show, I'll be satisfied. This run will be talked about for years.
