The theatre industry really is an echo chamber. I’m so sick of it. Much of it (not all of it) is about a play being a hit, it’s the same fucking artists getting opportunities, it’s the same work being shown but in different ways. It’s so ridiculously boring.

CASTE-ING, gig-theatre piece about difficulties Black women constantly face in our industry. We know this industry is hellish for artists of colour & EdFringe is a whole other ball game!

A thread of some of the wonderful shows by/with artists of colour at #EdinburghFringe!

Please invite me to more independently funded, large cast, black theatre shows. I love the vibe. Yes, even the uni and church shows.

[BlackStageUK @BlackStageUK]

@BartlettWalford Absolutely!

[@bartlettwalford @BartlettWalford]

No drama school environment should belittle or try to 'break' a performer.

No rehearsal should be anything other than a supportive and nourishing environment.

Everone should be working together to get the best results.

This industry HAS to let go of it's outdated practices.

44% of white working-class students and 37% of black students enter uni with only BTEC qualifications. Cutting these will have a huge impact on social mobility and our economy. Email your MP now and ask them to attend the #ProtectStudentChoice parliamentary debate 18.07.22 4:30pm
