Yesterday we had a humongous dragonfly in the house, which is a sentence I never want to write again. Today we had a parakeet and a blue tit. I’m beginning to think I’m married to Snow White.

Gorgeous. BTW, I saw this and thought of you.

@leemadgwick.bsky.social I have The Roost on my wall now, and I’m thrilled! It’s exquisitely painted and no online photo does justice to its broodiness. Thank you!

Fantastic! Catch them when they’re young. I’ll have to make a visit!
It's National BSL Day 👋

To model accessibility and inclusion for our future theatre makers, we weave accessibility into the creation of every Youth Ensemble production. Our young people work on captions, audio description, and sign performing.

In hashtags, it helps if each new word starts with a capital letter. Otherwise, sighted users could see a string of letters and not immediately know where one word ends and a new word begins. Capitalized words also help screen readers properly read out the hashtag.

This is one of the most beautiful and tender things I’ve ever seen onstage.
Love is a complicated business. It gets even more complicated when the person you love doesn’t want to be alive. 💟

With puppetry and clowning, The Light House is the highly acclaimed debut play of Glasgow-based theatre artist Alys Williams.

🗓️ For one night only, join us Sat 28 Mar, 7PM.

When I describe at the Old Vi c in London I share the lighting box. Due to necessary renovations it was no longer accessible to 5’ 3’’ arthritic me. So they built me a platform. You know where you’re welcome.

Since this vid I've worked extensively with a specialist. I'm sounding and feeling WAY better with my op scheduled for February. Then I'll have to take WEEKS off work rehabbing.

So tomorrow? FUNDRAISER! @vauxhalltavern.bsky.social! INSANE outfits! BANGER songs!
