It's nearly Christmas and @ArchivingAlanA is heading back to the 1960s in his latest SpotLight on Ayckbourn video to look at Alan Ayckbourn obscure early festive plays Dad's Tale & Christmas V Mastermind youtu.be/nHjXlA_jVhk Stephen Joseph Theatre UoY Borthwick Institute for Archives


What makes Alan Ayckbourn a truly great writer and great director? The fact that his work centres on the belief that only two things really matter in theatre: "actors and audiences" (so he said, on BBC Radio 4 this morning)

I've decided to leave Twitter and will no longer be tweeting at either @ArchivingAlanA or Alan Ayckbourn But there's still plenty of places on social media to find the latest Ayckbourn news or to learn about his plays and work. I hope you'll join me in these spaces...
