I’m delighted this wonderful news is out: the brilliant @deirdre_OH is moving to join us Birmingham Hippodrome to lead our New Musical Theatre department. Wonderful with new work and artists at all stages of their careers, I can’t wait to see the creative community she builds here.

I read a culture document the other day.. it was so dull & turgid. Written by people who looked & thought the same it only appealed to those who looked & sounded like them. If we don’t expand the voices culture, continues to exclude. Like appoints like. Like includes like

What a fabulous piece of writing, with some very clear and constructive ideas on how to build a National Arts Service that would work better for everyone.
