27 months after booking tickets and 3 reschedules later we finally managed to make it to the Book of Dust @_bridgetheatre. What an incredible show, emotional, beautiful story telling. Congrats to all the cast and crew.

People attending @UofGlasgow are definitely secretly attending wizardry school 🧙‍♀️

Enjoying the British institution of queuing to see @timminchin at the @EventimApollo 😂

And #WhoAmI? Well I’m about to turn 32, but still love dressing up 😆.

I love all things heritage, culture, art and photography.

Late starting #Museum30 because life 😮‍💨.

My #Museum is an amazing 32 acres of inventions, engineering, ingenuity and pioneering spirit.

@Sheepie_1985 👋 We’re just up the road from you in Stirling now, you’ll have to give us some tips on where to visit in Glasgow.

[Katharine Allen @Culturekath]

Art and culture are the beating heart of this country, not just important to the economy but also to well being and mental health.

So much wrong with this where do you start? - Ministers could limit student numbers on lower-earning arts degrees in England https://t.co/WmtUmmKcDV

Celebrating our first full week working from Stirling with a trip to @BrewDogStirling #collabfest2021. I think @jondunne is pretty happy 😆

We cannot thank Sebastian Vettel and our partners @AstonMartinF1 enough for their visible support for the #LGBTQ+ community.

We hope this will mean a lot to our community & allies in Hungary this weekend especially 🏳️‍🌈🏳️‍⚧️

Moment I’m never going to forget, so moving to be back at the theatre for @ComeFromAwayUK reopening night. The whole team was incredible.

[Come From Away UK @ComeFromAwayUK]

Our seats are full.
Our hearts are full. 💙💛

Welcome BACK to the Rock folks! 📍🗺️

In 1720, a pirate called Andy fell in love with a 'handsome young fellow' called Mark. But all was not as it seemed...

Cross-dressing and boundary breaking – this is the story of Anne Bonny and Mary Read, two of the most infamous pirates in history.

Q5 Roberta Cowell was the UK’s first woman to undergo transgender surgery. She had been a successful racer and RAF Ace, but after transitioning her Grand Prix dreams came to an end. @RacingPrideHQ @AbbieEaton44 are here to tell us more about why LGBTQ+ allyship is important?

[Brooklands Museum @BrooklandsMuseu]

Our friends at @RacingPrideHQ have put together a brilliant Ally Pack for anyone who wants to help make LGBTQ+ people feel welcomed and respected. Find it here 👇

🌨 Lockdown snow day saving January 2021. Love Bushy park with the car parks closed

Word of the day is 'sequaciousness' (17th century): the blinkered, unreasoning, and slavish following of another, no matter where it leads.

Bill Bailey: “The restrictions are going to be harder. People are going to be isolated over Christmas.

“This is not just a song about the arts. This is an anthem about not giving up, keeping hope. Getting through this. The show must go on.”

[Katharine Allen @Culturekath]

Yeah definitely spoke too soon.

[Katharine Allen @Culturekath]

Small positive on this dreary day is we can still go to the @kewgardens #christmasatkew (🤞 rules don’t change again before January)

Devastated that London will enter tier 3 from this Wed night; it’s catastrophic for the visitor economy at a time when nearly all attractions make significant £ in the run-up to Christmas. Attractions are proven COVID-safe venues so they are being penalised for their diligence.
