Happy World Circus Day from Circus250! We believe circus is the most accessible of art forms, for everyone. #worldcircusday #circus250 #worldcircusday 2024

Window display #Keflavik #Iceland . The blossom is the best bit.

The irony that’s #Iceland . Walk along any street and you’ll be the only pedestrian (below Selfoss, largest town on the South Coast). But go to a natural wonder in the middle of nowhere - the foot of a glacier or the crown of a crater (like Kerid below) - and it’s mobbed.

Oh Iceland! You are extraordinary. No words.

The programme for Daring Dames, our all-female circus festival is now live! Over weekend 24-26 May 2024, knockabout clowns, astounding acrobats and discussions showcase the very best female circus talent from throughout Ireland and beyond: circus250.com/festivals/dari…

Oh Showtown VisitBlackpool not even your new wonders can rival those of Blackpool town itself. My thoughts on Britain's first museum of popular culture spectator.co.uk/article/at-las…

Only in #Blackpool . You’re never alone at the new Showtown museum. A cubicle made for couples.

Book 7 of 2024. Bought this David Harewood Bluebird Books in Harewood House Trust shop which features black-authored books. Essential reading for anyone in the arts and beyond. Searing, insightful, painfully honest account about being Black in Britain today #YearOfBooks #WordsMatter

I don’t usually post about my swimming here, but today this happened … #PotOfGold #TwoPots

‘Fantastic, very funny and very moving,’ the wonderful Stephen Mangan at last night’s #AmIIrishYet with our star Kate Kerrigan White Bear Theatre . A Circus250 production. whitebeartheatre.co.uk/whatson/am-i-i… @LondonTheatre1 🦄

Displaying my juggling skills Showtown - #Blackpool new immersive museum, opening Friday. An enjoyable dip into the seaside town’s waters. Expect a lot of activities but no analysis. Fun is Blackpools future.

Book 6 of 2024. Spoiler Alert. Was enjoying this disturbing Laura Shepherd-Robinson thriller until someone told me the story of Zong. Then the ending was no longer a mystery. Sometimes it’s best to discover the fact after reading the fiction. #YearOfBooks

Such a powerful exhibition about and by David Harewood as part of Harewood House Trust Missing Portraits exhibition. Firm unfaltering steps towards addressing the imbalance and injustices in our historic homes. An example to all of them.

Utterly shameful. Cruel and uncaring both to others and our own. Let’s get rid of this despicable government.

Book 5 of 2024 - every sea swimmer will want to spend a day drowning in these calm waters. Beautiful collection of images and essays about the world’s tidal pools. On my bucket list to dip in them all. Thanks Chris Romer-Lee Batsford Books for best life travel guide #YearOfBooks

Lampshades on the loose. The fluidity of sculpture explored in Hayward Gallery Southbank Centre exhibition #WhenFormComesAlive opening tomorrow. Joyous and genius. This piece by DRIFT #Amsterdam with comments by director Ralph Rugoff.

Oh I so want one of these whalers hats Rijksmuseum I’d be buried in it.

In an iconic building in the heart of #Paris , astonishing things happen. #CirquedHiver still shines and awes in Europe’s oldest and most gorgeous #circus building. Who needs the #GRAMMYs2024 ? This is live at its finest. #CircusEverywhere #CircusForEveryone

Sadly I’m more team Heraclitus than Democritus. Philosophising at Rijksmuseum #Amsterdam
