@ThatCatMacLeod It’s a cut-throat world.

[Jack McNamara @JackMcNamara81]

So thrilled to work with Shelagh S to offer two women (35+) the chance to spend a week in the South of France this May to dream and write. Stunning surroundings, a world leading playwright to support you and all your meals cooked. No joke.

My play ‘In Event of Moone Disaster’ is currently playing in South Korea. If anyone’s passing by feel free to go see.

@Julie_Atherton I’d be interested in sharing a dark, comical two-hander with you. It’s a sort of gory anti-rom-com that examines the collapse of the NHS through the prism of a toxic relationship.

[Andrew Thompson @AndrewTwrites]

@annageorgina77 Would be interested to share something. How can I DM you?

[Andrew Thompson @AndrewTwrites]

Two of my favourite things in @royalcourt and Guybrush Threepwood together at last. And at the heart of that Venn diagram it turns out is @mrdavebyrne

Practically every ‘Key-worker’ we were told to clap for because they were so vital is now either on strike or balloting for strike action, because it turns out you can’t feed your family on applause.

[Andrew Thompson @AndrewTwrites]

Wow. I can’t believe it’s September time already.
