I am so late to the train on this due to various things, but I finally got a chance to listen to it on my journey down for the boat race yesterday and I do not have the words to express what a phenomenal piece of work this is!

Not only is it a masterclass in realistic AND entertaining dialogue (that first scene with Bill and Tommy is genius), but the relationship developments are so subtle you hardly notice them, and before you know it you’re crying your eyes out on Chiswick Bridge over the ending

@Oscar_C_M_ Judith, the FOH manager for the Minerva, has decent digs. Known quite a few people stay with her across multiple seasons. Worth asking Janet B about her

@DanHeesLX No Dan, the gunge bucket was thrown on me

[James Barnes @habebot]

It has been pointed out to me that all of these sound as if they’ve been taken from a @beansaladpod episode.

I can only apologise to the good people of Chichester that the backstage team are not conforming to the educated and eloquent nature of the town.

[James Barnes @habebot]

As I wrap up my final show at Chichester this year, I am able to treat you to this season’s crew quotebook from our productions of The Vortex, Assassins, and The Sound of Music:

Crisps are dangerous

Rich people are used to having seven houses and a horse

They get you with a biscuit, then they get you with the lord.

A herby crisp.

What’s the sheep to human ratio?
There’s more, innit.
