More tweets incoming but yday’s #NationalPoetryDay2023 was so full of analogue connection, digital connection took a backseat … Here’s the fantastic #literarylaundryline composed of poems from Flux Rotherham Spread The Word initiative. So proud of all poets & people involved
So chuffed that research like this is being done. Still amazes me that after being told “a girl like you from a town like this won’t work in TV” in early 90’s, I persevered, graduated from Leeds Uni Media & gained a 12 yr career in TV Prodn. Access & representation matters 💚
Anticipating another epic piece of art/theatre, grown from lived experience & tackling many modern day issues from Common Wealth If this has piqued your interest & then thought, “it’s not for me” Common Wealth is a place to try out that this possibly, “might be for me” 💚
And today we read poetry by the light of the moon … So very proud of those who experienced creative writing workshops today and/or are part of our monthly creative writing group funded by Flux Rotherham who got up and read their words & had their voices heard #poetry #community
There’s a joy experiencing the resistance & a joy in seeing your community represented in a wonderfully crafted piece of theatre by Red Ladder Boff Whalley beccy owen et al. So much of resonated & so much captured in 75 mins, I didn’t want to leave Staincross Parish Hall. 🙏
