I have always considered myself lucky to be from Yorkshire. Growing up amongst the beautiful countryside landscapes and experiencing the rich culture within each village, town and city, being surrounded with friendly northern accents and an incomparable warmness of peo...

Hello and welcome back to All the World's a Stage!

I have some VERY exciting news on the blog front! Some of you may remember, some of you may not, that a little less than a year ago I shared on twitter a website titled '100 Voices for 100 Years’. This was a podcast sit...

Now, it is probably known to most of you reading this that the Yorkshire girl has finally flown the nest across to Liverpool and, I’d like to add, has settled in rather nicely to the city life. Drama school is crazy busy but truly fantastic so I am fully ready and exci...

Hello! 

Introducing something new on the ol' blog today, shedding a little light on a challenge I have set myself as of late. It's 2018 and plastic is everywhere. We wear it. We eat out of it. We drink out of it. We wash ourselves with it and the list goes on and on and...

Hello and Happy International Women's Day Everyone!

Welcome back! 

Well we're officially two whole months into 2018. It's gone so fast and has been a super busy but exciting time for me. For various reasons, including auditions, I've been to Liverpool twice, London three times and even to Dublin (blog on that one coming...

We all have bad days. 

Being an actor, currently in the hellish audition period for drama school that leaves a person beaten down and questioning WHY I even do this in the first place, they happen fairly frequently.  I had one about a week ago. A crappy audition left me...

Hello and welcome back to my blog series!  

I'm gutted with myself that it's been so long since my last post but I'm determined to keep up with the bi-weekly posts in 2018. I have so many fantastic women to share with you this year, it would be a crime NOT to keep on to...
