Hilary KingHilary trained for the theatre at Rose Bruford College. After several years working in education and journalism in London, she moved to Asia and rediscovered her first love, staging theatre for children in Japan and producing immersive whodunnits in Hong Kong.
She launched the Red Pear Theatre in Antibes, France, in 1995. Returning to London in 2019 and establishing herself in an attic eyrie overlooking the Theatre Royal Drury Lane, she spent the Covid lockdown preparing this book, and is now planning to launch a salon. |
