Why Oh Why Oh Why... am I jumping out of a plane? Well, to be honest, I have always wanted to. Strange and bizarre I know. I am gradually piecing things together as I get older, and I think 60 is the kinda age when I am allowed to piece things together and come to my own conclusions. Not my own facts you understand, just conclusions. I have said a few times how I discovered my profession when I was 9 visiting my sister in Cambridge as she played Lady Macbeth in her first year. I went up all by myself as a 9 year old on the train and watched her that night at the ADC. Seeing Lucy up there, My Sister, playing at being a Scottish Queen from the dark times of history, made me realise that THIS was acting. THIS was what I had to do.
Hello everyone, I have had a wonderfully hectic ride the last 2 or 3 weeks. Hence the lack of Nat during birthday week. I have been having a great time, with so many people to thank for the hugely generous presents and wishes. So, in one blast THANK YOU ALL!
Nat will be part of a special evening at Charleston House, Lewes on April 2, 2022 from 19:00. You can join critically acclaimed pianist Melyvn Tan, members of the Piatti Quartet, and Nat as a special guest speaker, for an evening of music and word. As well as works by Debussy and Ravel, Tan will perform Messiaen’s ‘Quartet for the End of Time’.
Spanning Shakespeare, Keats, T.S Eliot, Virginia Woolf and Olivier Messiaen himself, the accompanying readings offer their own mysterious dialogue with the music. There will be a pre-event talk with Paul Boucher at 18:00.

It was great to go actually. Anna came with, looking a million dollars, and we saw some good old mates.
