A joy to see different archetypes emerge into our Bouffon world. Jaime Mears guided us through some brilliant exercises, finding variation, mischief and aliveness! She'll be back, via @amy_gwilliam_'s TSODU.
Spent the weekend with 10 or so women asking: what is a female clown/bouffon? How do crones, hags, and witches play? What is that particular energy about and what does that play like as comedy? (Photos: Matus Kika and Belle Spinks)
@Siphiwo__ is a beautiful soul that I met at a @CastingWorkshop. I was lucky enough to see him in @ABrief_list_, which is an equally beautiful play, so well staged in the beloved, intimate @finborough theatre. So happy for him and hurray for theatre 💞🕯️💡

#SpaceinTime Conference, Global historical thought on multiverses:
Prof Andrew Gregory @ucl: Ancient Greek, Hyppolytus
Wenjie Su @Princeton: Zhong Shisheng's defense of Buddhist multiverse in 17thC China
Adds context to contemporary boom of multiverses in film! (some I'm in ☺️)
Love that the Aristotelian diagrams Prof. Andrew Gregory (@ucl@stsucl) used in his talk were mirrored by the beautiful lights at Senate House.
Also harking to @BillSherman_'s opening remarks on the elliptical libraries @Warburg_News.
