I keep coming back this dumpster of an app scrolling through the most awful content to get to what I want. It’s my opinion that X is unethical. So I’m going for good am announcing it so you know how great I am. Feel free to tag me in promotionals and/or follow me elsewhere ✌🏻
Not being funny but this belongs in an exhibition of its own 🔥
Jukebox Collective have been nurturing youth culture in Welsh Arts for over a decade🏴
This is what St David’s Day looks like in Cardiff, fresh and relevant!
The biggest challenge facing any major incoming government is that as a society we’ve confused hyper connected single issue solidarity with community. Communities requires a broad church, where all these single issues are interconnected, not pitted against each other.
Ash Sarkar @AyoCaesar on Radio 4 this morning was phenomenal. Hopeful, realistic and cutting straight through the shit. I can’t believe the amount of political discourse in this country that doesn’t understand people actually know what’s going on.
A week ago we performed the Gaza Monologues @chapterartscentre with some of Cardiff's most powerful performers. The sharing sold out within a few hours - this tells us how much people need to bear witness, reflect, build knowledge and be together at this time 1/2
I'm getting a lot out of life at the moment. I don't know why, or I at least can't quite put my finger on it. I'm probably just in the sweet spot between bipolar dips, but whilst I'm here, I felt like saying; I'm broke, it's cold, I'm stressed, but getting a lot out of it.
It’s that time of year again. Looking for male-identifying Welsh speaking disabled actors (ideally physical impairment) for a TV project. DM interested
I fucking love Kae Tempest, and a few years ago I wouldn’t have said that. I held with disregard what I hadn’t ever really tried sitting with. But the more I sat with their work, reading, listening, watching, the more I was moved by it in ways that other things rarely move me.
Emily McDonald made a film about me, my work & the last couple of years of my life, on @BBCTwo tonight at 9pm & will be on @BBCiPlayer. It's personal, which is scary, but hopefully it will find its way to someone who will see some beauty in it & get some beauty out of it
If one person loves something, it’s enough. If you’ve got a weird hobby, passion or talent, it’s nice to have a community of people who get it, but if it’s just you, you should know it’s enough. This is to the guy I just walked past practicing ju-jitsu on a lamp post in the park.
As a theatre maker it's good to know how stuff you're doubtlessly going to be interacting with works. After YEARS of hearing techs talk about PARcans and Frasnels I've decided to carve out some time to learn about it! This webpage is a good 101-stop-shop: illuminated-integration.com/…
🧵 Nigel Farage makes his I'm A Celebrity debut tonight, where he will be presented as a purveyor of robust but mainstream rightwing views. A pre-show reminder that he's not: he has regularly aired conspiracy theories linked to antisemitism & far right beliefs. Here's a sample 1/
Jeremy Hunt just said that arrivals of refugees to the UK has gone down by 1/3, whilst up 1/3 in other countries. As if it’s a good thing. Like rather than attempting to solve systemic problems that lead to displacement the Tory’s are a flexing a “not our problem” policy.
I’m exceptionally proud to be back in the village I grew up in with some long-term friends of mine re-creating a community pantomime we first stages 20 years ago.
A proper passion project and blown away by what a community coming together with a common goal can accomplish.
