Brilliant @thickandtightdance have a film project in the works exploring queerness, ecology and Aids through the life of Derek Jarman. If you can spare some money for this collab with Corali Dance Company, you’ll be helping more queer excellence into the world. crowdfunder.co.uk/p/adieuthefilm

Love how LIVE TO TELL, with all its monologues, duologues, dancing, karaoke and climactic queer mess, shows how living with HIV right now is more complex than any conventional form of storytelling can contain. Let it burn inside of you Camden People's Theatre before Sat 15 April.



In awe of how Danny Lee Wynter flips from laughter to pain, from realism to fantasy, while exploring freedom and commitment, or family and chosen family, in #BlackSuperhero Royal Court. Superb cast. Brilliant writing. Beautiful design. Only two more weeks – go see!



So happy to see @TatendaShamiso’s NO I.D. in a packed house Royal Court last night. Such a beautifully inventive and layered piece of Black queer storytelling about the journey of becoming. Not to be missed.


My favourite part of Trajal Harrell’s Porca Miseria trilogy Barbican Centre? Deathbed, which integrates elements of music, movement and staging from radically different traditions into a moving queer whole. Great commission by Dance Umbrella.



A Shining Intimacy by Tom Marshman is a unique exploration of queer friendship that is as funny as it’s moving. Don’t miss the last show tonight Camden People's Theatre.



I love how Dickie Beau channels the Village People and Barbra Streisand alongside many notables of the British theatre to make Re-member Me Hampstead Theatre into a queer meditation on the impermanence of life and art – and a memorial to everyone lost to AIDS in the 80s and 90s.


So brilliant to see Holehead by Oluwaseun Olayiwola @ThePlaceLondon. A kind of kaleidoscopic fever dream of queerness and masculinity in hot pink bodysuits, four dancers restlessly switching between geometry and fluidity, naturalism and artifice, isolation and connection. 🙌🏻🙌🏻🙌🏻 #res23


I’m raising £2,500 to cover the costs of staging my new show Camden People's Theatre next month. Every penny will make a big difference. And sharing on your socials will also be brilliant. Thank you: you’re all very good dogs. crowdfunder.co.uk/p/virginia-woo…

Greyfriars Bobby became a poster boy for Victorian values of monogamous heteronormativity when, in fact, he sustained caring connections with multiple humans. My piece for Camden People's Theatre about the background to my new show on Weds 17 & Thurs 18 Jan. cptheatre.co.uk/artist_blogs/G…

Seen in work in prog form as part of Camden People's Theatre's cptheatre.co.uk/festivals/more…, this #PLAYFUL, #CHARMING, smart, #touching dog-loving solo show offers both #life & queer history lessons. Defo merits future outings! :)

As they [don't] say in the business, this show has [four] legs! Thanks, Martin Moriarty, for creating it. :)

We are an alliance of 167 disabled and ally theatre professionals and 19 creative organisations. This is our open letter to Shakespeare’s Globe regarding their summer season production of Richard III. #NothingAboutUsWithoutUs 1/2


By erasing Richard III’s disability in order to cast a non-disabled actor, and then asking disabled artists to wait for jam tomorrow, Shakespeare’s Globe is failing to follow through on its own advances on inclusivity, says lyngardner. thestage.co.uk/opinion/making…

Loved Pied Piper by BAC Beatbox Academy Southbank Centre: endlessly inventive show reworking the ancient tale with a message for now about living together in creative freedom. Amazing cast, outstanding community chorus, all led by the brilliant Conrad_Murray. #kidsup #ratsdown
