Ian Hale
Hospice Trustee
“James held us in a three dimensional experience when speaking about the woman who had died, my dear friend Jo. It was the words and stories that were delivered so intimately, so personally that they penetrated our grief and reached through to us; and so he brought this amazing, joyful woman back for us to love and appreciate newly inside a vibrant, playful word portrait. It was simple, unforgettable theatre.”
