I've not scheduled anthing this morning (til 2pm) and am in Pleasance Courtyard if anyone's about and wants a chat. I'm a UK venue programmer, also producing shows here at Pleasance & Underbelly, and previously worked for the Fringe Society. Black jacket, black top, curly hair tied back. #edfringe

My Edinburgh train is full of scouts heading to a camp somewhere. Please god let it be somewhere 1 stop away....

It's silly season! Today I've already checked in with Emmy Happisburgh and the Second Summer of Love team in Stage Two, and Harry Baker who is doing 2 shows over at the Playhouse. Now I'm away on a 6-hour train journey to Chester to rehearse Spy Movie: The Play!'s hour-long version for Edinburgh.

I will be at #edfringe to programme shows and connect with artists/companies. A bit about what in particular I’m looking for 🧵 I programme 3 theatres in Norwich (more info below). We also produce, with ability to support development of new work, commission and co-produce.

Five years in the making, Joe Tracini is ready to share 10 Things I Hate About Me, at #Edinburgh Fringe. @paulsullivanpr.bsky.social @edfringe.bsky.social @mustseetheatre.bsky.social #edfringe

You’ve got to hand it to Tupperware. So versatile. National Trust rangers do this year’s puffin weigh-in on the Farne Islands

This is very much a Brilliant Thing. www.whatsonstage.com/news/every-b...

I'm in a reet posh hotel (a million cushions/pillows on the bed, fancy coffee machine, etc) and all the telly apps. "Nev" has left his BBC Iplayer logged in. He likes Red Dwarf and Antiques Roadshow. What should I introduce Nev to that wasn't on tv in the 90s?

Could you be a 2025 Edinburgh Comedy Award judge?

First get-out of our 'Spy Movie: The Play!' tour done and I have given myself a lie-in. Which of course is why I've been wide awake since 6.30am.

Today's view from the train: Wolves, polar bears and a couple of eland antelopes.

SORRY. Sorry. Have we seen this *incredible* news video coming out of Queensland? Wait for the witness/witnesses statement

Thousands show solidarity at #TransRightsAreHumanRights Demo in Parliament Square.

There's been an announcememt on my train that a carriage has been locked out of use "for safety". I'm imagining an escaped tiger... very localised alien invasion... sentient train seat with a lot to say...

Stupid o'clock and I'm already on a train heading to That London for the first day of rehearsals on Spy Movie:The Play! UK tour premieres in Norwich 29 Apr. It's going to Chester! It's going to Guildford! It's going to the Edinburgh Fringe! It's going to other places too!

I was not expecting this to be a thread at all, let alone such an absorbing one that made me listen to Agadoo *several times*

Looking for Edinburgh accom for Aug? I have a spare double in Tollcross by the Meadows. Would initially like it to go to someone I know at least a little, IE if we're pals, we've worked together, or even follow each other, that makes it fair game. Drop me a DM or email me @ work.

Albert the bat is out of hibernation and flitting about outside my window. Like, literally over my head (sloping roof window). It's quite the show and it never gets old.

Since Jan., ELEVEN artists, companies & venues have seen real results from my PR Concierge Package. I’d love to help *your* project get press, without breaking the bank. I’ve got space for 3 more clients next month. Hit me up soon. Info here: www.petermmarino.com/pressrep

Couldn't be prouder sitting in tonight's opening night audience at the Playhouse for 201 Dance Company's adaptation of Michael Rosen's Sad Book. Such a stunning show - visually and emotionally. Last 2 performances tomorrow, Norwich - don't miss this! youtu.be/b926Wx4Igio?...

I bloody love this man. www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

New tour! Taking this on t'road from April through the summer. A love letter to the spy films we all know and adore, Spy Movie: The Play! is a farcical comedy that creates a Hollywood movie on a fringe theatre budget. norwichtheatre.org/spy-movie-th...

Hey, artists, in case you were wondering if your work matters: I'm a scientist working on climate change and biodiversity, and I would not be who I am today without The Lorax, The Secret of NIMH, Watership Down, The Last Unicorn, and The X-Files. I know I'm not alone. Thank you for all you do.

Walking into work on this freezing Monday morning the knell of the 8am bell sounded like impending doom, until a small child, at the top of his lungs, started yelling 'DING DING' to every chime in reply. Day made.

Stumbled upon this Victorian-era gem from circa 1850—a glimpse into life on the Royal Mile. Horse carts, elegant dresses, and a whole different Edinburgh. Author is unknown #Edinburgh #History #VictorianEra #Photography #RoyalMile #Scotland #Vintage #oldedinburgh

After spending the whole of xmas and new year with the virus from hell I'm frustrated to now be hit with a cold. It seems unfairly dealt. Where do I direct my complaint?

One for the music geeks out there. A fascinating look at the analogue remixing process for one of my favourite songs. www.musicradar.com/artists/a-ne...

There are very few places on earth that are colder than the waiting area for the 'through trains' at Manchester Piccadilly.

En route to Manchester for the last night of the Nutcracker in Havana tour, at Salford Lowry. I'm on a train that stops at all stations via Plymouth & Inverness. I may have typed "how much does it cost to buy a helicopter?" into Google.

This video tells the story of how I found out what happened to my fathers uncles and aunts who were killed in Auschwitz. www.youtube.com/watch?v=_iR_...

Today's my 3 year anniversary as Head of Programming & Producing at Norwich Theatre. In those three years I've worked with hundreds if not thousands of brilliant artists and people behind the scenes to make so many brilliant shows come to life. A few of my highlights: 🧵

Hero.

One woman Yorkshire version of Wicked. She had me at "Tha can still be wi't Wizard"! youtu.be/5tCO4HWUEE8?...

There is a crowdfunder for Tony Slattery’s funeral - please share among those you think you be interested www.crowdfunder.co.uk/p/funeral-fo...

When I saw the doc 'What's the Matter with Tony Slattery?' I felt I knew him. When I was offered his solo show I grabbed it - I wanted him to see how much he is loved. It was going to be next week. Today feels cruel & deeply sad. I hope he can see the outpouring of love somehow.

My front door draft excluder is a dog and every morning I feel bad about moving him to leave the house. Folks, meet Alan Benson, Head of Security.

New window vinyl at Stage Two!

Sad to hear that Babette Langford has died. I worked with Babette over 12 years at Richmond & Wimbledon theatres. A force of nature. An absolute legend. Occasionally terrifying, even for grown-ups. A starting point for so many careers in our industry. Love to Bonnie and Cherida x

Umm.... Happy New Year!

Well well! Theatre to get excited about in 2025? Only blimmin' Lynn Faces @ Norwich Theatre! www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

Thread!

Finally got round to seeing Beth Steel's 'Till The Stars Come Down' and oh what a rollercoaster it is. So refreshing to see characters I grew up around on stage. And it's not every day the Snooty Fox at Old Ollerton gets a mention at the Nash!

Leftfield xmas telly recommendation: Alien on Stage (Amazon Prime). It follows a Dorset amateur theatre group who decided instead of a panto to make a stage version of Alien. A totally joyful celebration of creativity & community - so much fun!

The bar downstairs from me is hosting a work do, & there's currently an award ceremony going on. Droning speech punctuated by woos and occasional waaays, but my favourite bit is someone sitting outside clapping alone for way too long every time.

Soho Theatre tonight for a bit of Ball & Boe. Very excited for this one!

Remembering that time I was made redundant at Christmas and then forced to work 13 hour days 22nd - 28th so that the people who'd kept their employment could have a little break. What a caring, sharing organisation that was.

Last working day of the year for me. End of term. I'm expecting Connect 4 & Guess Who and not real work, obvs. (Kidding, I need to find a way to cram 2 weeks work into the next 8 hours somehow)
