Meet the cast of Shakepeare's Women👋 Calla Hughes is currently filming for Lisa McGee's new series. Catherine Rees has performed in The Mousetrap in the West End and in the BBC's Blue Lights. 📅 5 - 9 Nov 2024 🎟️ ow.ly/2zFX50Tumpq CommediaOfErrors

every woman writing comedy isn't writing "the next Fleabag" & every woman writing dark comedy/horror isn't "the next Emerald Fennell". The way we speak of female creatives is so tedious & limiting, we are much more than copies. We aren't "the next", we are our own voices

Honestly most of the language went right over my head so what l fixed upon was two wonderful actors in Catherine Rees and Calla Hughes love these two and they certainly didn't disappoint tonight both excellent. 😀
