So nice to join the Bristol Old Vic audience tonight from the comfort of my sofa to see Touching the Void. Fantastic production and a flawless stream, with superb music & sound by Jon Nicholls - well done to everyone involved!

I'll be talking to The RSC musicians, Monday, 6pm about creating music for #HenryVIPartOne We'll get a guided tour around their setups, discuss the challenges of devising cues on the hoof, and much more. Join the live-stream Green Room Chat here: rsc.org.uk/henry-vi-part-i

Camera Rehearsal for The RSC #HenryVIPartOne Live Stream tomorrow night. Weapons at the ready...

Getting ready for the final camera rehearsal for tonight's live-stream of #HenryVIPartOne The RSC Aside from the cameras in the Ashcroft Room, there's a bit of background kit in the Swan. Next time you set up for a Zoom meeting - be thankful you don't have to deal with this ...

Here we go... #HenryVIPartOne The RSC

Having had to pivot online in the winter, and film Winter's Tale at Easter - tonight is the 1st live, public performance with an in-person audience The RSC for just shy of 16 months. The Garden Theatre is great - it's like Wimbledon, but with actors... Bring it on

Sitzprobe. Always a favourite point in the rehearsal process... #MagiciansElephant The RSC

Hang on a minute. The Lydia & Manfred Gorvy Garden Theatre has DISAPPEARED. Hmmm. Could this be the work of a magician, perhaps?... #MagiciansElephant The RSC

I just added my name to this emergency appeal for climate action by Greta, Vanessa, Mitzi, and Dominika. Sign now and share, and they'll deliver our voices directly to governments at the COP26 #climate summit. fb.avaaz.org/campaign/en/cl…

10 years ago today... Still going strong. Nice to be sat in the stalls watching this time, along with lots of the original team and 42 previous Matildas! Long may it continue The RSC

⭐️Fantastic to see that our collaboration with SOMM RECORDINGS Tamsin Dalley and @RGCWbaritone and Bruce O'Neil is out today with glorious reviews!

Ever buy fairtrade bananas? Neil Young's Spotify boycott has made switching streaming platforms a thing, not only due to politics/conscience - a fair deal for artists is becoming part of the equation. Will Spotify become Fairtrade Daniel Ek? #BrokenRecord tinyurl.com/2p94s75y

When you enter a lift The RSC, sometimes the occupants are... surprising. This Peregrine Falcon was on her way to the RST rooftop, to see off the pigeons.

Recording this today which has been waiting patiently at Shakespeare B Trust archive for over 60 years, since Lennox Berkeley composed the score for Winter's Tale in Stratford in 1960, the year before the RSC was founded. Never been heard since - until now. "Music, awake her; strike!"
