Feeling very pleased with myself (and lolling to myself way too much in a public place) that I am managing to get an S Club cannabis arrest joke into my next play via a transition sound cue... if you know you know, but hoping at least a couple of people in the audience get the reference 🤣

Just saw the terrific #SonOfABitchPlay from Anna Morris and @thethelmas.bsky.social at @swkplay.bsky.social. Extremely funny with moments of deeply affecting pathos. Hardly surprising that it's a Fringe First winner. Don't miss this comedy gem.

This! 🫶🏻
Congrats to everyone hustling in UK theatre right now, whether your hard work is recognised by nominations or not. Making work in this landscape is complicated and brutal. Persevering and still giving your all to art deserves its own award. Thank you for your resilience ❤️

REVIEW: Son of a Bitch
Marnie, like all women, has felt the pressure to have kids. And now she’s had one, she regrets it, or does she? Son of a bitch follows the descent of a woman into chaos of the motherhood she never really wanted.
