After 11 yrs I have changed my username to @oddsocksarcade

I have been waiting to change my username for sometime since my former one is now unfortunately liked to the leader of the transphobes

I still wanted something vaguely anonymous and connected to me

Do carry on

96 G4 lamp holders made up ready to go into the set of Alice In Wonderland at @ShakespeareNP next week. A very welcome repetitive, low stakes project following the usual summer chaos.

Word of the day is ‘recrudescence’ (17th century): the return of something terrible after a time of reprieve.

@HarrietWarnock @SeanBurkeShow Shockingly accurate

[Hetty Hodgson @hettyhodgson]

We've had gorgeouuuusss and busy audiences throughout the month for @IReallyDoPlay but our final couple of shows today & tomorrow are looking pretty small. We'd LOVE for the show to go out on a bang & to see you there

@HarrietWarnock My honest insomnia solution is that when you're awake you need to accept it and go do something, I do puzzles / crosswords. But keep lights low etc. and hydrate and then I can normally sleep again within 45 mins

Overjoyed to have opened STUFFED @UglyBucket last night at @unitytheatre for our first #fringe preview. This show has pushed me hard as a PM & I'm honored to get to work with the fantastic @Kaila_Sharples and @CharlyDunford in my Prod Team.

I cant stress enough that if you have the chance you must see STUFFED by @UglyBucket. It's high production value. It's deep cutting verbatim. It's intense physical clown theatre. It's CAP, AD and SSE #accesssible
