Alex is a true London theatre aficionado—she sees it all. An English teacher with a soft spot for The Scottish Play (“such a cliché!”), she still never tires of seeing or teaching it.

Her favourite venue is the “delightfully intimate” Almeida in Islington, where she’s seen many of her “most memorable” productions. Following Inter Alia this summer, she’d kill to see Rosamund Pike: “in anything — again.” And she’s most excited to see Susan Sarandon make her West End debut in Mary Page Marlowe at The Old Vic this autumn.
