Trauma expert Dr Gabor Maté: the first massacre against Palestinians was in 1956 but you call them “animals” because you know NOTHING about it

[Popsie Theatre @popsie_theatre]

"Anonymous" is the biggest funder on every art institution's list of donours. Ever wondered who

Sadly, billionaires and art-washing feel timely...

[Popsie Theatre @popsie_theatre]

A bunch of artists with no funding, the ultra-wealthy, and one very sexy Death present to you a show about the healthy relationship between Art and Money.

Saw Nowhere by @khalidabdalla dir. by @omar_elerian yesterday, and it left me completely speechless. What a journey, what a necessary, beautiful and generous piece of theatre. Thank you for playing, and for not playing it safe 🩶🕊️

the news:
- 3 women murdered by an ex with a crossbow
- Tampons have arsenic & lead in them
- 80% of all Autoimmune diseases in women due to the role they play societally
- Men abusing women goes up 38% when England lose

the internet:
has feminism gone too far?

What a beautiful play is @George_ThePlay get down to @OmnibusTheatre by Sunday! 🪶 Brilliant storytellers have told the story of brilliant storyteller George Sand and the result is magic ✨

[A Young(ish) Perspective @YoungishPers]

REVIEW: 5 stars to @George_ThePlay @omnibustheatre
'A brilliantly enjoyable story told with humour, heart, and true artistry, as 19th-century novelist George Sand grapples with gender and identity both in life and on paper.'

[Fergus Morgan @FergusMorgan]

Theatre twitter! I need some help!

Every year, I collate the funniest incidents recorded on show reports for a piece @TheStage.

You know the sort of thing: animal invaders, outrageous audiences, costume chaos...

Pls send anything you've got my way. DMs open. RTs appreciated.

[edgarwright @edgarwright]

This is my annual shout to the supernaturally hardworking @bfi staff and all the volunteers at #LFF2023 who make it all seem effortless (It isn’t!)

[Rute Costa @Rute17_]

@lata_nobes Good advice! Thank you!!

[Rute Costa @Rute17_]

also, how do you get past the obstacle of getting your first 'professional' assistant director job if all AD vacancies require you to have AD'd before (even tho you're a competent & qualified Fringe director)? - asking for an exhausted & desperate friend.

[Rute Costa @Rute17_]

Yes yes yes to Jon Fosse winning the Nobel Prize - everyone but British Theatre saw that one coming...

[Rute Costa @Rute17_]

@omar_elerian I LOVED directing Fosse's 'Eg er vinden' ('I am the wind' as translated/adapted by @StephensSimon ) last year for the @StoneCrabsTC directors' showcase; and I'm now praying/hoping/working hard/crossing fingers we'll finally land funding so it can come back for a proper run!
