@youngvictheatre @LIFTfestival I would sell my very soul in order for Ruth Wilson and the Young Vic to stage this just one more time. Disgusted, sickened and miserable that I missed out on it when it ran. Fingers crossed for a future revival 🤞

Probably not the weirdest thing to happen in the London Underground!

“It is outrageous that those who oppose war must fight for the space to argue for peace.

The industry military complex is the most dangerous unaccountable organisation on the planet.”

And on students protesting Gaza “good luck to them.”

Protest works.

Trinity College Dublin students set up an encampment demanding their university divest from Israeli companies.

Yesterday, the authorities accepted their demands.

A good day to be in Dublin! 🇮🇪🇵🇸

Patti LuPone: “I feel as if Broadway is turning into Disneyland, circus or Las Vegas… the ticket prices: outrageous. There’s so many obstacles that prevent Theatre from being the tool that it should be in our society, which is an education.”

150 years ago today, at precisely 8pm, the world of art changed forever.

What happened? A small, independent art exhibition opened in Paris.

It was a financial failure and barely 3,000 people went — but, in time, these artists would come to be known as "the Impressionists"...

An open letter from Daniel Radcliffe

[Variety @Variety]

Tony Kushner says Jonathan Glazer made an “unimpeachable, irrefutable statement" about the Israel-Hamas war in his Oscar speech.

"What he’s saying is so simple. He’s saying: Jewishness, Jewish identity, Jewish history, the history of the Holocaust, the history of Jewish suffering must not be used in a campaign of — as an excuse for a project of dehumanizing or slaughtering other people. This is a misappropriation of what it means to be a Jew, what the Holocaust meant, and [Glazer] rejects that. Who doesn’t agree with that? What kind of person thinks that what’s going on now in Gaza is acceptable?”
