🎭 Exciting news via the 🍇vine! We made history as the first live #musical staged at BFI. Now, we're so close to fully staging this swinging #sixties production, but we need your support to reach the finish line. Help us by donating & sharing! igg.me/at/bardotbatte…

… and that’s it. Phew. A lot of changes, some good, some challenges ahead for artists. ACE have also put together this brilliant library of resources including guidance, all the questions and accessible formats. Do pass it on: buff.ly/3RCCx9q

I see the disgusting attack on our children has been used as an excuse by the scumbags to wreck our city. Dublin city deserves better than these scum and those that egg them on from the comfort of their homes.

So sorry, but we’ve been at Brixton House for 2 days & we’ve received no donations. This Sat, we’re meant to host a free Festive Market for people to collect items plus we’ll distribute some to local charities. If we don’t receive anything, it will hard for us to help others

It’s #LoveMonth! And we’re going to spend it sharing all the reasons people love Blue Elephant! 2024 is going to be a tough year for Blue Elephant as we fight to stay open but all the love will make it that bit easier ❤️

This #LoveBET poster was a collaborative effort - the young creators love the games at Young People’s Theatre and the opportunities to perform. Through it all though, they’re also developing soft skills like teamwork and making lasting friendships ❤️

Today’s throwback #LoveBET post goes all the way back to 2017 and Original Impact’s actor-muso Twelfth Night directed by @SamuelCDunstan. We’d a great time working with the obscenely talented cast and creative team and were glad they enjoyed their time with us too ❤️

A spokesperson for Badenoch yesterday told The Journal: “We fully support freedom of speech, but it’s hardly surprising that we don’t want to hand out UK taxpayers’ money to people that oppose the United Kingdom itself.” So. Many. Things. Wrong. With. This.

Next week, we’re part of Big Give's #ArtsForImpact Campaign, raising money for our workshops in schools! Our workshops have run for 20 years & have made a huge impact on many lives. We’d love to hear if you’ve been part of them, as child, a facilitator or a school staff member?

Did you see us on BBC London News last week? If not, you can catch up here! youtu.be/nUE83ek56Xs

One of the dumbest tweets I've seen this week. The comments underneath it are somehow even dumber. I would suggest restaurant guy do some basic research, before talking utter nonsense, but I doubt he would risk talking sense. A few facts to try counter this shite. /1

I don’t speak of this often but listening to Nigel Farage in tonight’s debate I must. My dad was an immigrant. From the moment he arrived in this country he worked hard every day in labouring jobs. My most vivid recollection is of his tired & weary eyes and oil stained overalls

I see the far-right's new favourite person is Michael O'Leary, after his comments this morning. Those comments, incidentally, show he knows nothing whatsoever about the asylum process. I'll go through what he said and what it would mean in practice if it were to be done. /1

We’re seeking volunteers to support the delivery of Encounter Festival! Volunteer stewards will work with the events team across all aspects of the programme; supporting shows, liaising with artists, helping with evaluation and creating content for our social media channels.

📢 Exciting funding news! Thanks to #NationalLottery players, we've awarded over £203 million in vital funding to almost 4,000 community groups in England in the last quarter! See how National Lottery funding is being used to shape communities futures.⬇️ ow.ly/Wtyq50SC6rF

As you may have heard, our Olivier award along with a number of other items were stolen from our offices over the weekend. Help us #BringLarryBack! irishtimes.com/culture/stage/… #Fishamble

Blue Elephant Theatre's black box theatre space is a fantastic space to hire for rehearsals, shows, readthroughs, photoshoots and video projects. Tonight they are having an open evening at 6pm to show you around the space and what's on offer. orlo.uk/XzfIg

Last month there was an announcement that I thought was a major advancement in world health, but it got little attention. I thought I would tell you all a little bit about it and why it is so important. 1/25
