It’s already six weeks since 49 innocent people were murdered at a gay nightclub, Pulse, in Orlando, Florida. They were killed simply because of who they were. The news cycle moves so quickly and other, newer horrors come along, but let’s make sure that the victims are not forgotten. The video in the link below is by the Human Rights Campaign in which each victim of the shooting is remembered. We’ve been so busy recently that I just got round to watching it. I found it profoundly moving and also frustrating that gun violence continues. Love, Neil x

What an amazing first night at the Royal Opera House! We’ve worked so hard on the show over the last few months and to get such a warm and wonderful audience reaction was thrilling. Thanks to everyone who worked on the show, particularly Es,Lynne, Stuart Price, Pete Gleadall, Andy Crookston, Affie, Christina, Simon, the 50 dancers, our crew and everyone at the ROH. I can’t wait for tomorrow night! Love, Neil xx
