Cuttin’ It deals with Female Genital Mutilation (FGM) in England and makes the case for not allowing concerns about cultural sensitivities to prevent confronting it and received four stars in The Guardian when it opened in London in summer 2016.

The Evening Standard Awards for Theatre celebrated their 62nd edition this year and the results were announced at ceremony presented by Rob Brydon at London’s Old Vic theatre.
