(1/2) This is it, we’re saying ‘see ya’ to Twitter/X. Our reasons are pretty much the same as everyone else's, most importantly that we’re a safe and inclusive space for young people and X/Twitter is the total opposite of that.

“Masterful punch-in-the-gut production… physically shattering… bold… brave, committed and beautifully sung… tender and vulnerable… core of steel… rip-roaring… unusually chilling… thrillingly sung” – ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ from @guardian! theguardian.com/music/articl…

Now THAT is what the young professionals in this industry are capable of. THAT is what happens when you give them to tools and support and mentoring to succeed. And THAT is what happens when you take a risk on them. *mic drop*

Spot the difference: 78 years ago today The Rape of Lucretia got its first ever outing, and now this summer we’re using it to help a bunch of young professionals kickstart their careers.

Exciting to find out that our chairman, Richard Greenhalgh, is becoming SIR Richard in the King's birthday honours list, for services to education. He gives so much time and energy to BYO and it couldn't be more deserved. Big congratulations and thanks to Sir Richard!
