I’m Still Burning

I’m Still Burning premiered as a streamed show during lockdown from Jermyn Street Theatre; it was part of their 15 Heroines shows where 15 playwrights dramatised 15 of Ovid’s fictional letters, taking a heroine each. My play, I’m Still Burning, was directed by Cat Robey and starred Nathalie Armin.
