“I really want my daughter to be Goth. I want a Goth-themed nursery. I want a Goth baby.”

“No matter how creatively satisfying theatre might be, it is a poorly-paid medium, which is sad.”

“We want all pupils to have the chance to study subjects that are not only going to set them up for the future but which will stretch them creatively.”
