Connor Campbell

Chief Theatre Critic

With a Masters in English from the University of Southampton, Connor high-tailed it to London with aspirations of greatness. Instead he became a financial analyst, posting the odd book or theatre review to try and fill the void. Follow him on Twitter @ConnorJCamp and on Instagram @foxybox91.
