The first videos from the wonderful world

Good morning. It's a little dark and drizzly here in Cambridge at the moment. I think someone forget to tell the weather gods that we're not in Edinburgh this year - my hopes to enjoy a little sunshine through at least one August seem to have been dashed!

My apologies that this is our first blog post this month; I feel slightly shamed that our last posting was back on 28 July, which seems like an age ago now! I'm sneakily going to shift blame on to Richard for abandoning his intern post for a few weeks so that he can go and review shows up at the Fringe (and thus he's not here to defend himself!).

My reason for posting this morning is that Hugh has created some lovely little videos for us to act as mini-insights into his wonderful world. Here, some of his friends (and his sister) give you their thoughts on the Hugh that they know.

I'll leave you to enjoy them...









And a quick reminder that tickets are now on sale for The Wonderful World of Hugh Hughes at London's Barbican Centre from 8 September until 2 October and the Ulster Bank Dublin Theatre Festival from 12 to 17 October. Full details here.
