I’ve been lucky enough to work on two projects now with #JohnnyFlynn and @elrhode and something *magic* happens when they collaborate. This film could be something really special but they need YOUR help…! #CODES #FilmFunding #ShortFilm #Kickstarter

@TimeOutLondon Hi @TimeOutLondon, very exciting that the Bridge is bringing back Dream, but the photo you use in the article is from a different production - the RSC Dream which transferred to @BarbicanCentre a few months ago… cheers.

Oh my goodness, this is grim. Bristol Old Vic Theatre School ends undergraduate training over cost issues https://t.co/pG2te7S1vg

If only his colleagues had all been young working class women, ideally with little job security, none of this would have happened.

Factcheck: Maternity pay has existed since 1911 & is essential for women to make informed, supported reproductive choices. It is also currently at a level where 71% of women worry 'a lot' about money during maternity leave and 35% of new mothers skip meals to afford to live.

A reminder. This is what brave looks like. Mme Pélicot leaving the Avignon courthouse yesterday. https://t.co/ycliEqCKTV

I was a council scheme boy but I became upper class when I started shoplifting at Harrods. It just takes enterprise

@SarahGPage Would never cut your performance. In fact, seriously considering building a whole spinoff series around the backstory of Stripper number 4. She’s a classy bird.

In France ChatGPT is pronounced the same as 'Chat, j'ai pété' which means 'Cat, I have farted'. Which seems to sum the whole thing up pretty neatly.

The extreme Right are very loud rather than very popular. But as long as the media mistake loudness for popularity, the extreme Right will keep getting more airtime than their rivals. That’s not to underestimate the very real frustrations with politics that many of their supporters feel, but it does give us the first very real sign that the march of the Far Right is not as relentless and unstoppable as they would browbeat us into believing. It’ll be hard work and demand full attention, but they CAN be stopped. And that gives me hope.

Really ugly scenes during @jessphillips‘ acceptance speech. Absolutely appalling; men shouting down a woman when she’s legitimately won an election is disgraceful and a bad look for our democracy.

From rugby league to Royal Opera, our cultural and sporting heritage runs through our towns, villages and cities and is one of our country’s greatest assets.

It is an unbelievable privilege to take on the role of Secretary of State @DCMS . The hard work begins today.

This remake of The Shining looks shit.

Let this sink in:
1/3 of performing arts freelancers reported average hour earnings below National Living Wage.
1/5 of performing arts freelancers work over 50 or more hours a week.

If this was a salaried job it WOULD BE ILLEGAL.

Nothing to see here, folks, just a whole bunch of people who trained in those 'worthless' arts subjects adding £250m to the national economy.

For example, I never spent four billion pounds on unusable PPE.
