On this day in 2019 Italy Uncovered @theatre503 hosted 5 new plays from Italy. An incredible adventure involving 9actors, a group of translators, 3directors and 5playwrights. We’ll be back soon with a brand new edition suited to the demands of these unprecedented times.
I want to thank @Unicorn_Theatre@unicorn_schools and @lucy_dear for the marvellous teachers resource pack from #GulliversTravels. My Y3 and 4 have thoroughly enjoyed working on some of those fantastic activities! Can’t wait to bring the kids to a show whenever possible 🙏🏻
Watched #ShoeLady@royalcourt tonight. It’s difficult to watch something so real and relatable. But I LOVED it. And also felt disappointed that, when it’s a man’s tragedy, if it’s Willy Loman, it’s beautiful, it’s sublime. But when it’s a woman’s tragedy, then it’s invisible.
Saw #YouStupidDarkness tonight @swkplay and was moved to tears. No matter what we go through, we have each other. That’s the real strength. Don’t need big twists, don’t need wow factors...just need people and their stories ❤️ @painesplough
