A look back at the fantastic 'A Grain of Sand' from @goodchancetheatre.bsky.social at #LAAF2025!
At @unitytheatre.bsky.social we took an intimate look at war through the eyes of a child, blending Palestinian folklore with real-life testimonies from children in Gaza.

Pope Francis was a powerful voice for displaced people, the planet and peace. In 2021, he welcomed Little Amal to Vatican City with open arms. His powerful voice and presence will be deeply missed. May his legacy continue to inspire a more just and caring world 🧡

If you work in climate, politics, or just want to understand what global agreements really take, go see Kyoto
It’s fierce, funny, and painfully relevant. The kind of storytelling we need more of.

The most moving part? Seeing how nations with vastly different agendas did come to an agreement
It’s easy to feel cynical about global climate talks, especially in our current divided era, but this is a powerful reminder that unity is possible when urgency outweighs ego

Kyoto puts you in the room where it happened: 11 hrs past the COP deadline, nations deadlocked, and fossil fuel lobbyists doing all they can to sink a deal.
Climate negotiations aren’t dull, they’re messy, human, political. This play nails it.

I saw Kyoto last night at Soho Place. It is staggering and terrifying. I still feel pretty shaken up. One of the most eye-opening pieces of theatre I've seen in years. Staged simply, performed impeccably. If you can, go and see it.
