A very quick drive by to say I went to see our darling Rupert in High Society on Thursday evening, and he was (of course!) absolutely wonderful. Honestly, it's like he was born to do this kind of thing.

I blogged about it on my Rupert website here.

Truly excellent news today: Rupert has been cast as CK Dexter Haven (the Cary Grant role!) in a production of Cole Porter's musical High Society at the Old Vic Theatre! It's a lovely long run, too, from 30 April to 22 August 2015.

Check out all the details at the Old Vic website.
