I love her ease, her peace, her solitude.

Rest in peace forever, dear artist 🤎🪽

Can we as a nation for just one fucking second afford trans ppl the same dignity and respect we automatically give everyone else and stop constantly pathologising and infantalising them?

Know how you have a strong sense of self? WELL SO DO THEY. It's really not hard to grasp

still can’t contain my delight at getting to see WOMBATS, CASSOWARIES, KOALAS and ECHIDNAS yesterday!!!!!!!

#TheLehmanTrilogy takes to the Theatre Royal Sydney stage for the final time.

#TheLehmanTrilogy is 'a must-see'.

Don't miss this 'theatrical masterclass' (the AU review) at Theatre Royal Sydney - performances must end 24 March.

This is why I have no time for people with established careers saying 'oh it's always been hard'. Pay attention. These schemes go and nothing replaces them. If you're in post at an RFO/NPO and don't think you have a responsibility to be part of the solution, quit your job.

Lenme get this straight: early career opportunities are disappearing like lightning. Mid-career pathways haven’t existed for some time. Small scale touring’s halfway down the shitter cos of funding cuts, so just the handful of same 10-15 established directors working in future?

IdeasTap - gone
Old Vic New Voices/24 hr Plays - gone
OV12 - gone
VAULT - gone
EdFringe - priced out
ACE - tiny success rate

so what now

#InternationalWomenDay is a time to celebrate women, but it's also a day of protest. In UK theatre, statistics show that men are paid 37% more as freelancers, and make up 74% of credited writers and 90% of critics. Yet, women are nearly two thirds of theatre audiences!

To celebrate #InternationalWomensDay , we're giving away a copy of Running the Room: Conversations with Women Theatre Directors!

Twenty-four leading talents discuss their work in intimate and illuminating detail.

Retweet this and follow us to enter - ends Mon 11 Mar.

Freelancers do not get laid off or made redundant, instead they simply cease to get work.
