#ThroughItAllTogether scores a powerful goal – one that hits you right in the heart. New play @cpoconnor87 @LeedsPlayhouse puts #LUFC straight through to the First Division. Beautifully written and sensitively directed @gitikabuttoo. Great chemistry @reece_dinsdale @ShobnaGulati

#ThroughItAllTogether by @cpoconnor87 at @LeedsPlayhouse is absolutely beautiful! Every beat is on point. Essentially a story about the enduring power of love; through the pain of dementia and of a football team that struggles to make promotion. @gitikabuttoo's direction is...1/3

Honestly, last night‘s production of Tell Me How It Ends @LivEveryPlay written by the incredible @tashadmusouk was the best show I’ve seen in years. I laughed and I fully sobbed. @gitikabuttoo has directed an absolute masterpiece.
