I miss that first read through when you have to read the lyrics to a song you haven't learnt yet & then everyone joins in at the chorus & you're all chanting away like a weird cult giving it big licks because it's the first day.

It's been really exciting to work with @Jennifer_Galt
and the @traversetheatre team on this.
If you know any young people aged 11 - 18 who would like to get involved, please encourage them to submit their writing.
It's going to be a hoot 🥳✊

A women's football team practises opposite our flat every week - they are so cool and good at football and have such glorious pony tails.

Thanks for the question Victoria @BBCBreakfast. No apology wanted or needed. Believe me, if I felt differently you'd know. A loaded question maybe, but I got to say on national tv what I've been saying to @adamsmet66 in our kitchen for months. I'm glad it's struck a chord.

Just want to join in with the positivity and say how much I can’t wait to see this.
Great writer, great director, great character.

Our new play I, Joan shows Joan as a legendary leader who uses the pronouns ‘they/them’. We are not the first to present Joan in this way, and we will not be the last. We can't wait to share this production with everyone and discover this cultural icon.

For tonight’s plug of The Farm, I want to pay homage to our awesome director @keownmcniamh, who never asked her actors to do anything she wasn’t prepared to do herself. @standupfarmer still managed to get genuinely stuck in this tree tho 😂
