I was lucky enough to be raised by a mother who values the Arts. She decorated my childhood with walks along the Southbank and bus rides into “town” to visit London’s museums, galleries and theatres. Some of my happiest family memories are of birthday theatre trips to see musicals: Beauty and the Beast where I talked, for weeks after, about how on earth they managed to execute the Beast’s magical transformation; the year after seeing The Lion King when we listened to the soundtrack every day before going to school; making my brother learn the entire routine for the finale of Hairspray. This is to say, I feel comfortable in theatres.
