And I wonder how many of these racists banging about Juliet being White even know that in the original production she’d have been played by an adolescent boy

Creative Industries make up 6% of our economy. That’s more than car and oil industries together. They employ 2.3million people. To cut funding for creative arts at university level is fudge-brained, cack-hearted thinking pitched very much at the highest level of economic

Over the years I’ve lost two friends, one Palestinian and one Lebanese, and nearly lost a third, a French cameraman, to the willingness of IDF soldiers to open fire even though they knew perfectly well who they were. But they felt sure their superiors would protect them.

Every #ProductionUnlocked masterclass I’ve ever attended has been tremendous. It’s a rare treat to have it land in your second city.

It's actions like this that make me love the people of this industry. In this house we look after each other. Thank you Callum UwUnderwood!
