Ru & Poppy

Hey there,

My name is Ru. I’m queer, from Somerset, and after graduating from drama school I moved to London about 3 years ago. I’m currently looking for somewhere new to live with my best friend, Poppy.

Poppy is an actor, artist and theatre maker, and we’re both very creative people who love being surrounded by good energy, good conversation and a cosy home vibe.

We went to drama school together and both work at the Barbican. I work there as a venue manager, as well as running a theatre company, which means I travel a bit for work and spend a lot of time producing and running events around London.

Outside of work, I’m a physical theatre performer, dancer and actor, and I love film, reading and the odd boogie. Between the two of us, there’s usually something creative on the go, but we also really value having a calm, welcoming home to come back to.
I’m known for my Sunday roasts, laughing at terrible jokes far too loudly, and always getting a round in at the pub. We’re looking for a home with a relaxed, friendly atmosphere — pub trips, maybe a BBQ in the summer, sharing the occasional roast dinner (which I’ll cook and insist “isn’t my best work”).

We both really love the space, and it would be lovely to come and meet you folks properly and have a wee look around.
Hope you have a wonderful evening, and chat soon!
