@AyannaPrescod @DeborahTracey I think if you work in theatre it is only common sense to consider very carefully anything you say or do in a theatre environment that might be overheard or observed. But I also think that a blanket ban on criticism on the premises is unreasonable. It’s how it’s expressed.

Thank you to them all! #ThankYouNHS

@richard05342679 @lucymaygoodwin So do you think it should be judged solely on technical dancing skills? Because last year Layton was a brilliant dancer but people said it was about ‘the journey’ & not the dancing. Chris is certainly having an amazing journey. If he wins it won’t be “just because he’s blind”.

@lucymaygoodwin Nikita looked incredulous when Craig gave his score too.

@marksandspencer After I fell in Lancaster last week, one of your staff went out of her way to help me (along with 2 other members of the public). I am very grateful indeed to her. Do you have any sort of staff recognition award I could nominate her for?

@sociabledog I remember the first time I watched this, smiling broadly to see Sophie trotting happily back and forth and doing her head tilting “don’t stop” signal 🥰

@slunglowalan So many of your adventures seem to involve a bag full of smoke grenades. One might be forgiven for thinking Davidbaby’s birthday party was just an excuse.

Just watched the #NationalTheatreAtHome streamed production of #Nye. Free until tomorrow and there’s a BSL interpreted version. Great play. Recommended. But the adverts almost ruined it. Sudden jumps from play to advert and back totally destroying the feeling of the piece.

Anyone working on Community Theatre productions going into rehearsal from March 2025? I'm supporting a Director with a DYCP app who would like shadowing opps on plays created with community and professional casts in East Mids or beyond.

@BradfordTheatre - I have asked you for this information repeatedly and you ignore my requests. You offer BSL interpretation of some great shows but #WhoIsTheInterpreter ?

@deafdragongirl Hi Laura. Just in case you haven’t noticed, the latest show info from Newcastle Theatre Royal has several performances that are *both* interpreted and captioned. Looks like you might get to the theatre a bit more 😁
