I’m so proud of the journey of Unfortunate and the part we’ve played with the team. A real pinch me moment, seeing it complete its journey from Patrick Studio to Birmingham Hippodrome main stage & big shout to Old Joint Stock Pub & Theatre Karl Steele who believed in the company even earlier.

This first week of Hamilton West End in Birmingham has been unbelievable. Audible gasps, tears and instant standing ovations every performance. Birmingham Hippodrome works tirelessly to create “goosebumps moments”. This cast brings them like I’ve never seen before.
