Last year, a producer told me I was too old as a woman to be a writer/performer. Yesterday, I was told by an established writer that I'm too working class. Anyway, I've decided to write and perform my 1st solo show @CamdenFringe I FED MY DAD TO A PELICAN

Guys, I've been nominated for Best Debut Show with @LeicsComedyFest ❤️ I had so much fun at this festival. This time last year I was still trying to figure out how to turn my mad story into a comedy show, and I've done it. You can watch it in London 6th March. Link in bio.

You abstained from major votes on abortion rights. You voted against publishing a gender equality strategy. Childcare fees have increased at twice the rate of wages in the last 10 yrs keeping many women out of work. Rape convictions at an all time low. Who are you protecting?

@sydneyamee I think for working class actors like me, zoom castings have been really helpful. Taking time off work and paying for travel at short notice is really difficult and pushes those that aren't as financially stable out the industry. A recall in person for sure though x
