Chekhov by candlelight is, unsurprisingly, well worth experiencing. www.whatsonstage.com/news/three-s...

Paule is a true 🐐 of UK theatre. She's been so good, for so long, and richly deserves a rest.

Enjoyed speaking to Paul about his ambitious plans - and how he came to produce Gary Oldman's first stage performance in four decades.
