When I go to the tanning shop and go on one of the vertical sunbeds, I imagine I'm the Doner meat on a rotisserie and rotate, very slowly. When the buzzer goes to say my minutes are up, I'll mutter, "would you like salad on your kebab, Sir?" I'm not sure why I do this.

Since I set up @artsemergency.bsky.social (not inc 2y piloting & discursively developing a project) FOUR people have signed up to our community EVERY DAY. That’s now 17,200 people over the past 12 years. 90% of our team & 100% of our trustee board would have been eligible for the project aged 16🧵

Nearly every lyric needs replacing (even a lot of the ones they’ve kept in the new version), so could we not just write a new song?

The most useful function of a theatre outreach or participation department is not, as people often think, to change people outside 'in the community'. It's to change the organisation itself.
