by Guest Author - Jul 30, 2025
There’s something reassuring about stepping into a show that is already a success. But similarly, if you’re a catastrophiser like I am, it’s utterly terrifying. Even when I joined the cast of Les Misérables in its 31st year, I thought to myself, “What if I’m the one that manages to close Les Mis!!?” Imagine my fear then, when I landed the role of Ron Weasley in Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.

Review: THE HABITS, Hampstead Theatre
by Cindy Marcolina - Mar 11, 2025
Each Thursday night, the most unlikely of groups meet to play Dungeons and Dragons. A struggling teenager, an overworked trainee solicitor, and an unemployed twenty-something become a Dungeon Master, a Wizard, and a Warrior Princess. Instead of fighting the system that lets them down head on, they work together to defeat the Nightmare King. Protected by their spells and weapons, everything seems fine for a few hours. Reality intertwines with their fantasy to unfold a story imbued with grief, where growing up and letting go lie at the end of a gruesome battle with oneself.
