Amazing Katak performance of #Roshni tonight by Sonia Sabri Company @derbytheatre . One of the best things I’ve seen all year. Super skillful and the 1 beat with the tabla and feet were Divine as was the squirrel. Joy Guru for a wonderful performance 🙏. On Tour, catch it 🌺🪷

Oíche Shamhna Shona Daoibh! 🎃
An raibh a fhios agaibh gurb as Éirinn a tháinig Oíche Shamhna agus gurb go n-úsáidtí tornapaí in ionad puimcíni ar dtús?

Crisis in #Blackpool this morning. They seem to have lost some asses. If you see any stray asses, please contact the @Conservatives who are well trained in looking after them. @UKLabour #LocalElection #LocalElections2024 #LocalElections

Just leaving this here because this level of debate feels quite absent from the British theatre mainstream. That’s not to say I agree with everything Louis writes, but that it’s refreshing to be able to have a debate of ideas rather than one of truths

President of Student's Union in Lancaster, "I have students coming in saying they can't study because they haven't eaten in three days"
Fiona Bruce, "People are telling you they haven't eaten in three days?"
President, "I have hundreds of stories.. We have a food bank on campus.. We have a supper club where we give our free meals to over 100 students every Thursday... The only hot meal they'll have that week"
"Students are the future of the economy.. If we can't eat, we can't study, if we can't afford our rent we can't live here.. The government does not prioritise students and it hasn't in the last decade" #BBCQT @LancasterSU @CerysEvans

Manchester’s @rxtheatre is abandoning its artistic director model for the first time in its 47-year history, and will instead appoint a creative director who will work as part of a trio of artistic leaders bit.ly/45FgTEV
Than and now:
This is what democracy in the U.K. looks like! How much taxpayers money has been spent on this? Over 2000 Police Officers and roads closed/ blocked everywhere. Disgusting! #ToryPartyConference #PartyGateRound100 #Tories #Conservatives #Manchester #MidlandHotel
After all the complications with @RoundhouseLDN tickets, I’ve made it to Manchester to see @PJHarveyUK Sadly minus my partner but sure to be a magical eve. #PJHarvey
2 tickets needed for @pjharvey at Roundhouse tonight (29th).Venue messed up our tickets which were a 40th birthday present to myself 🤦🏻♀️Travelling from Derby to London right now.Will get to venue about 7:30.Can meet at venue and give cash on collection #PjHarvey #Roundhouse
Near Oxford and giving up to go to relatives on route.. Have a great gig @PJHarveyUK Gutted to have missed this (first time in 15+ years) due to a venue booking error. No chance of new issue of my tickets as the venue are impossible to reach. Absolutely devastated
We are travelling all the way from near Derby and now no tickets thanks to the error. The @RoundhouseLDN customer service is non-existent - bots or an events telephone line that doesn’t answer
Thank you so so much @BBCSPORTNI for showing the #AllIrelandHurlingFinal for the first time on U.K. TV. All Irish eyes are smiling here - some game for a neutral! #Gaa @CrokePark #KilkennyVLimerick #BBCGAA
I find it in incredible how the U.K. government don’t listen to the people or any organisation in the know about rights of refugees and need to waste money waiting for courts to decide. International Law is International Law! #IStandWithRefugees @refugeecouncil @AmnestyUK

I’m not sure whether to be impressed or disturbed.
