Thankful for all the opportunities 2024 has thrown my way.
Lucky to travel, collaborate, laugh, celebrate & pull shapes with a host of fabulous people who inspire me on the daily.
Grief may colour the year but there is much to be proud of.

Delighted to speak to Jorge Rivera-Herrans about EPIC: the Musical and his epic journey making it. www.theguardian.com/technology/2...
‘We’re figuring out cool ways of storytelling’: how TikTok is changing the way we watch musicals
Jorge Rivera-Herrans’s musical sensation Epic is just one of a series of works making a splash on the online platform

Does anyone know where I can find this exercise programme that the majority of my gym seem to be doing this morning? It appears to involve sitting at a machine and not using it for what feels like an incessant amount of time...

Dramaturgs are incredible assets to creative teams. I am not one, but I teach my students—future actors, directors, & theatre educators—the value of good dramaturgical foundations & support.
More people—audiences & artists alike—ought to recognize & engage with the work of dramaturgs.

Dramaturgs of bluesky: people still don’t really know what we do or feel the need for our services. And we complicate things with individual definitions of “dramaturgy,” so how do you describe your job? #theatresky

people who hate musicals talk about it endlessly... it kind of sounds like it's a really big emotion that might be best expressed through song for them

With people suddenly flocking to this site, here's my starter pack for theatre professionals, theatre educators and theatre journalists. I can't include everyone, so apologues if you're not here – this is just to help get you started! go.bsky.app/GyFDAhC

They did not do anything and I did not get tickets. Even the Liverpool bias couldn't help me!
This is life now. Stuck in the glasto ticket limbo, watching hopefully for my two bars to do... something... @cmdrtandler.bsky.social
