Algorithms Wins Stage to Screen New Voice Award

Incredibly chuffed to say that Algorithms won the Edinburgh TV Festival’s ‘Stage to Screen’ New Voice Award (supported by Netflix). It was a really fun night at the award ceremony at Rich Mix and the music they chose for me to walk on stage to was Lizzo - which anyone who’s seen Algorithms will know was a very fitting choice. The prize is a year of support from the Edinburgh TV festival and industry professionals, as well as getting to go to the Edinburgh TV Festival this August.

Algorithms at Soho Theatre

Absolutely thrilled to announce that the bisexual Bridget Jones is back! Algorithms is heading to Soho Theatre for a week long run Tues 10 - Sat 14 March 2:45pm & 7:15pm. I can’t wait to return to Soho where this show first began on the Writer’s Lab. If you fancy coming along to laugh and cry about the perils of online dating and social media tickets can be purchased here.

12 Theatre Stars of 2020

Well, after a stonking summer at the Edinburgh Fringe Festival where Algorithms sold out its run, transferred to The Pleasance, Islington as part of their ‘Best of the Fringe’ season and went on tour to Birmingham for SHOUT Festival I had the LOVELY news that I’d been named one of The Guardian’s ‘12 Theatre Stars for 2020’. Honestly could not think of a better way to end the year.

We will have more exciting news to announce regarding Algorithms’ return to London this year, and an Autumn 2020 Tour so watch this space…

Algorithms Goes to Edinburgh Fringe

Following the success of the Algorithms work in progress performances at Soho Theatre (which sold out within 24 hours!) I am taking the show to Edinburgh with a team of brilliant creatives. The play will run from July 31st to August 26th at 12:45pm at the Pleasance Courtyard in a new venue, Baby Grand. The Pleasance is my favourite Edinburgh venue and I’m so excited to be performing there this year. It’s been a dream to take my own show up to the Fringe ever since I first went eight years ago, in 2011. You can book tickets here.
