Still getting my head around the glorious whirlwind that was @ImaginateUK! Saturday was a dash between the sublime Murmur by Grensgavel, the magical The Very Old Man With Enormous Wings by @dangcolley & @riverbankarts and Udul! Love to @TYAIreland for the chance to go!

So sad that @SceneAgusHeard is no more due to a lack of funding. I was lucky enough to be part of their Production Manager GENERATOR Programme and learned heaps from some of the most generous, creative professionals in Irish theatre. There is nothing like this festival!

[ArtsEdPortal.ie @ArtsEdPortal_ie]

@dublinfringe has some exciting upcoming events!

Whodunnit? The Great Art Robbery is an exciting online multilingual event developed by @SuperPaua for ages 8-12 years
