🚨 The arts sector, one of the hardest hit by the pandemic, faces a new and existential crisis from Omicron. I've signed the @Public_Campaign letter urging the Culture Secretary to protect UK culture with an emergency relief fund now. https://t.co/j8mMQpFSK7
What I have found interesting whilst in lockdown is the promotion of all the subjects that in school get the least appreciation; Art, Music, Sport. If they are all essential for keeping us sane in lockdown why aren’t they just as essential when it comes to funding?
Swan Lake from the superbly talented @livingspit at @tftheatres last night was a gem. Who’d have thought 2 comedy actors and a pair of ballet dancers would create such hilarious magic together. Grab tickets if you can - on til next Sunday but virtually sold out
The state of social media in Britain right now is terrifying.
Even otherwise perfectly nice people that I know are sharing and saying vile things about other groups of people. What a mess.
I’m heartbroken about my country.
We are better than this shit.
A bit of bounce for you all this Sunday morning. Combining breaking and contemporary dance, this show is guaranteed to get your feet tingling and your head spinning with a whirl of colourful images and playful sounds. #SundayFunday

Why is creativity important and where can you find it? Watch our film made in collaboration with some of the young people who come to our youth theatre and find out!
@FreyaHMills Hi Freya I’d be more than happy to talk to you about Sally. As @totter_down said I gave her first professional job as director of Cloudland in 2002 and then worked with her on all her many productions for Travelling Light. Do get in touch - I’m still her biggest fan!
Having experience of making work for young audiences should be a compulsory requirement for any artistic director post. Young audiences are the most perceptive,challenging and giving. You can't bullshit them. Some of my best work has been for young people. #ChildrensTheatre
