Some sneaky peaks at the set for the first youth theatre double bill at @derbytheatre this week! Was hard not to get swept up in the excited energy in the room as they see their set and costume for the first time!

@BlackledgeColin @rxtheatre Thank you Colin!

This week I started my new part time role as the Local Exchange Community Connector for Leigh, Atherton and Tyldesley! I can't wait to work with my local community to develop arts events and opportunities for the area! @rxtheatre

@dgellis0907 They only do walk ins, but Palace Barbers in Afflecks has got to be the most friendly barbers out there. I always end up talking about theatre with Steven if he cuts my hair

@paddyhughes89 Not a venue, but Nye could be performed on NYE (New Years Eve)

[Eleanor Ferguson @EllieFergDesign]

@EmmaTompkins @rxtheatre It really is tbh, feeling very lucky!

I am begging you all to hire designers and set aside some design budget PLEASE

The creator of the Willy Wonka experience has issued an apology.

“I’m really shocked the event had fallen short of the expectations of people on paper. My vision of the artistic rendition of a well-known book didn’t come to fruition. For that, I am absolutely truly & utterly sorry.”

How to use the lift at spinners mill! The lift has safety sensors that will make the lift halt if you cross the yellow line and reach for the doors too early. Listen for the clicks, or if you're hard of hearing, wait around 3 seconds after the lift stops to open the doors

🎥-How to use the lift-🎥

A video tutorial on using the lift in the mill, we understand the lift is difficult to use especially for first time visitors.

We hope this video makes it easier to understand 😄

This is shocking but to be honest if I didn't move in with my partner straight after uni I wouldn't have been able to go straight into working freelance

And of course designers, lighting designers, they're all going through this too. A brilliant young designer told me that, at a @_scene_change_ organised Q&A with an established designer, the career advice they were given was "get a rich husband"...

@lherbertdesign Thank you!! Can't wait to spend all my down time stripping wallpaper !

@joshHparr Hi Josh, I'm always up for a chat about new potential collaborations! https://t.co/doAWQ6W53J

[Eleanor Ferguson @EllieFergDesign]

@WynChloe I know this isn't great advice on making money, but I feel like I've seen more general artist opportunities than theatre opportunities recently, so I'm looking at diversifying my creative practice!

[Eleanor Ferguson @EllieFergDesign]

@WynChloe I'm looking into creating my own artworks and project ideas, so when I see call outs for artists to be part of an exhibition or project that engages with people, I already have ideas and a portfolio. It takes work up front but sometimes there are artist development /funding opps

To be an autistic woman is always feeling little bit like a Sylvanian Family hamster that’s landed in Barbie World
