English National Opera Chair Harry Brunjes in The New Statesman states he had 24 hours notice of complete withdrawal of Arts Council England #NPO funding. And that they have 5 months left in London Coliseum. Was this a last minute decision by Arts Council England? I just can’t understand how this happens #LoveENO

Went to English National Opera last night. Full house. Reasonably priced (by West End standards). Didn't know ENO gives out 10s of thousands of free seats to under 21s. It one of the most accessible (& non-eletist) opera companies on the planet. And it has just lost ALL of its funding.

Very much looking forward to being a part of this next weekend! Especially being able to sing with @ElladeJongh again! Can't wait. Luminosa

Still on a high from our wonderful concert sponsored by Hattingley Valley of Brahms’ Requiem featuring @ElladeJongh and Joe Chalmers We had a fabulous time and judging by this video from pianist Valentina Seferinova so did our lovely audience! youtu.be/aPlIUSqtuoM 🎶🍷🎶

I ASK EVERYONE WHO SEES THIS TWEET TO PLEASE RT IT. Tomorrow nurses strike. They will be put through hell by the media, politicians and the establishment. Ahead of the action please share this tweet if you back the nurses and find it sickening that they are being vilified.

Pleased to have secured a debate next Weds on ACE's funding decisions. With English National Opera making clear it can't survive, and Glyndebourne axing its tour, the damage is clear. Greater scrutiny needed on how these decisions were made & the approach toward the performing arts generally.

Here’s a stat for you. There are only an estimated 175 singers in employed salaried jobs in the U.K. Around 50 of those jobs are currently at risk at BBC Singers and English National Opera alone. Apparently isolated decisions that could have enormous repercussions for a profession.

Rebecca Frecknall's interview in The Stage has prompted me to break out a thread I have sat on for a while. It breaks down what I think is the biggest obstacle in theatre but the least openly discussed... Pay So here is the THEATRE PAY MATHS THREAD 🧵👇 thestage.co.uk/news/rebecca-f…

Things began to look very unusual two months ago. Today the charts need no commentary, they speak for themselves. This is the Atlantic. x.com/DrTELS/status/…

BREAKING 🚨🚨🚨 EU elections cement the accuracy of the Western political cycle.

After the rally, Mark Ruffalo is asked about Gaza, a topic he’s been outspoken about. “There’s no perfect candidate right now, but we know what Trump will do.” “Our chances of changing her positions inside the White House, are better than they’ll ever be with Trump.”
