Happy New Year lovely people!!! x
It's been a funny year. I feel like all I've done workwise this year is co-write the play that was on a few weeks ago. But that's nonsense. I've obviously done more than that, and this feeling I can't shake is just in my head.
I haven't got anything at all set-up for the... 1/5

Today's the day. Tonight will be the night before the night before Christmas, and I'm off to the final peformance of #AProperMerryChristmess; the show I co-wrote with #SeetaWrightson, at #LawrenceBatleyTheatre to say goodbye to the show and farewell to the incredible cast and team. #HappySad

Love seeing the joy that #AProperMerryChristmess - which I co-wrote - is bringing to people, like in Wakefield last night.
If anyone wants a Christmas play for next year; if contracts are signed and parameters set by mid February, I can have a rehearsal-ready script by mid-October. Get in touch!

Had a great time yesterday at the @bradfordoperafest.bsky.social-organised mini-symposium on Art, AI, and Access at #MindtheGap.
The saw brand new opera #TheLastMachineBreaker by #BenCrick and #KamalKaan, directed by @amcchisholm.bsky.social. It was fantastic! Beautifully performed and accessible.
