Hello Summer ☀️

Inspired by the Globe Theatre, a thatched wonder made from 1,000 oak trees, and the 400th anniversary of Shakespeare's First Folio, 2023 sees us celebrate his plays in a season that speaks directly to our natural world.

Oh and I did see the ‘subordinate’ thing... the resistance to centring communities and profound engagement is usually a fear of being irrelevant. #keeponkeepingon

@TheRSC I find myself so proud tonight of all that we are and all that we are endeavouring to be. #37Plays, the most ambitious playwriting invitation ever launched, David Edgar’s furiously timely #ChristmasCarol in rehearsal, the #Mischief festival reopening The Other Place 1/1

Twenty years on, Sing Yer Heart Out for the Lads is still chillingly topical. This is a roaring production. @ChichesterFT

directing this revival of roy williams’ sublime play has been nothing short of a privilege and joy. that it is resonating so loudly with audiences confirms what an essential piece it is. come through to @ChichesterFT and join us in the king george pub (tix for a fiver for U30)

Remembering when some letters fell off a wall behind Theresa May & everyone was like ‘can she survive this humiliation’ & gosh those were innocent times

They’re cancelling art & humanities degrees at uni where students aren’t in skilled jobs in 6 months. They would have cancelled my drama degree at Hull on that basis. I wouldn’t have become a writer. I wouldn’t have written #Sherwood. Other writers wouldn’t have written theirs.

A reminder of when Boris Johnson said he was "furious" to see footage of staff joking about holding illegal parties in Downing Street.

All the while he knew he had attended them himself.
