#TwoStrangers Kiln Theatre is everything I didn’t know I needed. Pure joy and sharp cynicism beautifully iced over layers of New York at Christmas. I wasn’t even mad at the Revolve (which is so unlike me!).

What a Christmas gift to the world! I take back my hard earned cynicism and bathe in the bright bright lights of theatre future. Congratulations @IRubasingham. So well deserved.

We stand in solidarity with our colleagues and friends at The Freedom Theatre, whose offices were raided by Israeli forces. We are relieved to hear of the release of AD Ahmed Tobasi but we call for the immediate and unconditional release of Mustafa Sheta, Jamal Abu Joas 1/2

Hell of a year, hell of a team. Every one of them is a phenomenal goose and I’m so lucky and grateful that we keep flocking together. Merry everything! 🎄

Manifestation time: After a year of pure perseverance, my wish for 2024 is that within our acts of resistance, solidarity & revolution, we will hold gentleness, generosity & as much hope as we can bear. The crack is how the light gets in. #keepthegateopen

Setting some personal intentions for the year today to wrangle 2024 into shape before logging back on tomorrow. 1. Use more of what I’ve already got: cook from the cupboard, use gifted toiletries, wear the sequins. 2. Take everything Bird By Bird. (Anne Lamott) 3. Hydrate

I would follow this woman to the end of the earth. If you are a human you need to read Shami Chakrabati's "Human Rights The Case for the Defence". If you are not then don't. We need this book now more than ever. #shamichakrabati waterstones.com/book/human-rig…

Together with my independent colleagues, I have written to the Home Secretary requesting an urgent meeting in light of the far-right riots. We must call out this violence for what it is: rampant Islamophobia.
