Former Creative in Residence, Lisa Spirling is directing former EastEnders star Lacey Turner (Stacey Slater) in an exciting new play at Soho Theatre. Hundreds and Thousands by Lou Ramsden is a thrilling exploration of how far we’re willing to go to fufill our dreams. Also starring Robert Wilfort (Gavin & Stacey), Sukie Smith (Royal Court) and Stuart Laing (EastEnders) the play is spearheading the launch of the new Upstairs space at Soho Theatre. During her residency at The Hospital Club in 2009, Lisa hosted a reading of the play cast by Gary Davy, one of our founding members.

The play is being produced by Lisa’s theatre company Buckle for Dust. For more information about the play and the company, please visit www.bucklefordust.org.uk or follow the company on Twitter http://twitter.com/#!/BuckleforDust
