I had a fun time writing this blog for @Run_Riot about making 'Commitment Phobe', which is going to be at @YardTheatre, 2nd-6th May. (Should you want a weird insight into my brain..!)

Beautiful pals. Next week I head to Paris, to perform both ‘Ways To Submit’ & ‘Commitment Phobe’ as part of this festival. I’ve never shown work there before, if you have any Parisian friends, please send them our way! 🙏🏻😘

🎹🍆💃Un pianista vola sobre l’instrument. Una artista i una espectadora rodolen per terra. Dues vedettes ensenyen la seva col·lecció de vibradors. Al @Festival_TNT s'hi va amb la curiositat afilada i la ment ben oberta. ✍️Una crònica de l'@Herronita93 👉entreacte.cat/entrades/actua…

Good TIMES. 💪😻
Replying to @YardTheatre
Lest we forget that it was in fact @irabrand who FIRST brought wrestling to our stage for NOW 19 and took many of our audiences and Yard staff down to the ground. Iconic.

I am (almost almost!) at a point where I can take a much-needed work break for a week & I'd like to read a book. Have you read a book? What was it? Did you like it? Why? Give me your words-on-pages wisdom.

2 more chances to watch us submit to the chaos machine..
Make tonight (or tomorrow) a Yard night with @irabrand and Freddie Wulf: a double bill of dreams! And booking for both shows makes it way cheaper for you as well, triple win! Annnd our drinks are some of the cheapest in Hackney Wick, quadruple win! 🔗 bit.ly/NOW2023

Teaser trailer! Trailer teaser! Taser trealer! I love this.😍 Come see our show at @YardTheatre til Sat. x
"I catch myself wishing for a purity, like some kind of binary of all good or all bad." There are several possible ways that this show could end 🗡️ Watch the trailer for Ira Brand’s Commitment Phobe at #NOW23 — only three shows left. Don’t miss out. 🔗 bit.ly/IraBrand

London, come watch us f*ck up in new & surprising ways every night this week.. 🤦🏻‍♀️
A look at @irabrand's Commitment Phobe at #NOW23: a show about power and doubt that is at once hilarious and unpredictable, and (literally) builds and builds to insane intensity. Watch out for the knife, who knows what might happen. Must end 6 May 🔗 bit.ly/IraBrand

People of London. This week you have the rare and precious opportunity for a Forest Fringe trifecta, with @irabrand at the Yard, @shysecretagent and @ActionHeroLive at Battersea Arts Centre, and the launch of Andy's book in Dalston. Anyone that makes it to all three gets a prize.

This a big huge reminder that with #NoEmptySeats, everyone aged 26 and under can nab any unsold seat at The Yard for just £5. You can take a chance on the door or you can send us a nice DM and we'll let you know if we have any going. Easy!

"I want the show to be a kind of gentle "f*** you" to the dominant social and cultural narratives that tell us that certain and decisive are the ways it is valuable for a person to be (a ‘gentle’ "f*** you" because, well, resisting boldness)." 🔗 bit.ly/IraBrand

It’s a little funny, FF has been doing things with micro-budgets since we were born. I’m much less okay with working for free these days, but our barometer for doing so was usually if we would be learning something new.

We certainly learnt a lot with this film project, and these kind of recognitions fill me with joy for all of us who were learning and doing on that island. This process was a full-on labour of love & BIG respect to everybody who was involved. 😘
