Wow @mikedaviot.bsky.social is a world class actor. What a storyteller. His account of Duncan McCrae's life and work was utterly compelling. As I said to him afterwards I really need to up my game 😆 Brilliant Mike!

The extraordinary Jen who not only has created some amazing works herself, but is directly responsible for the careers of many a theatre botherer on here including yours truly.
Since people are arriving here and introducing themselves, I'm taking the opportunity to look back at some things I've done over the past ~15 years. This photo is from my first professional gig, assisting on an immersive Macbeth in Poole's Cavern in Buxton with Butterfly Theatre.

That Fringe I started working with Matchmaker, a Canadian company working with local artists to make EdFringe more feasible. I directed The Masks of Oscar Wilde, Shaul Ezer's exploration of Wilde's life and works, with @catacts.bsky.social, Conor O'Dwyer, and images by @mdbolsover.bsky.social.

Just finished The Penguin. If Colin Farrell does win a lot things it'll be a travesty.
