Swooning fangirling post coming up…

So thrilled I got to watch the AMAZING “Present Laughter” tonight on the big screen. I’m not lying when I say I REALLY needed this little piece of joy and magic after the week I’ve had…

Where would I start though? I mean, it’s funny as hell for a start. The entire cast are amazing and Andrew’s ‘Garry Essendine’ is just phenomenal. Absolutely mesmerising to watch. His facial expressions contribute to 90% of the comedy I think. Damn, I didn’t think it was possible to become even more obsessed then I was before but it definitely is 👍 At the end of the day it IS a recording of a play and the performances clearly belong on the stage so if you’re not into theatre and the stereotypical overacting and theatrics of a live show then you might not appreciate it. But the irony runs through the heart of it - half of the story is about an actor who is accused by others around him of overacting and never showing his true self 🤣 🤣

It was literally one of the best things I’ve ever seen and I thank NTLive for deciding to re-release it in the cinemas so it reaches more audiences. I really hope they can stream it at some point like they are with Vanya later in the year. Someone said they didn’t have the rights or something but we’ll see. In any case I’m so so glad I got to see it during this run 😍😍😍

Matthew Warchus is directing a movie, you say? It's going to be a musical, you say? And he there's an Irish playwright writing it, you say? Iiiiiiiiiiiincheresting! I wonder which actor, who has been talking about wanting to be in a musical for ages and who has helped raise money for Warchus' theatre many many times, might get cast in this!!

Last April, Andrew spoke at The Old Vic Tomorrow Gala fundraiser in support of their new Backstage Building, a six-storey building for creativity, education and community. Today he attended the burying of a time capsule in what will be the foundations of that new building.
