By the time the last curtain comes down, Molly is fastening an earring. She is 164 cm and curvy, with dark brown hair falling in loose waves that she refuses to tame and brown eyes full of whatever she is about to talk you into. Early twenties, she dresses bold and slightly theatrical: a sequinned top, tailored trousers rather than a dress, a leather jacket slung across her shoulders for the stroll from one bar to the next, and heels that have survived a great many late nights.
Warm first, playful immediately afterwards, and confident throughout. She is the person who talks to the staff, learns the doorman's name and gets the better table without anybody quite noticing how. Her English is quick and funny. House music is the real love, the kind played properly and loudly. Craft cocktails are the professional interest. Vintage cars are the surprise, inherited from a father who let her drive one at an age when she absolutely should not have been driving anything.
Her hours belong to Leicester Square after the crowds thin. She likes the late bar at The Londoner, six floors below street level and open long after most kitchens have given up, where the room is dark and the music is good enough to argue about. From there the whole of WC2 is a ten minute walk, and she knows which doors are still open at two in the morning and which only look it.
Soho is home, which puts Leicester Square seven minutes away on foot and most WC2 hotels ten minutes by cab. Ten o'clock onwards is her window: give booking your hotel and she starts getting ready.
Her home stage is Soho, and she travels from there to the venues this house covers. Her full listing sits with the rest of the company on the companions page.
