Rosie Millard
Rosie Millard has been writing for NS for more than five years and is now Theatre Critic, which suits her perfectly since she is never happier than when sitting in an auditorium waiting for the curtain to rise. She was the Arts Correspondent for BBC News for 10 years and is now a broadsheet columnist. She lives in London with heaps of small children, which may partially explain her love of going to the theatre.
