Remember that WWE just firing international talent means they instantly rip their visas and shit away and just strand them in florida. This same thing happened to La Catalina when WWE fired her after calling her up that she had to sell hear gear and lucha masks just to get back to her home country

Weird how I’ve now seen three musicals which are ‘20th Century female singer has tempestuous relationship with personal-professional male partner then goes on to have more successful solo career’, it should be its own genre.

There should be an academic study into 'Middle Aged Men and their Absurd Choice of T Shirts'.

Liminal Spaces but it's Tom and Jerry backgrounds.

Hey everyone! I know I've been silent recently, but I have some incredible news to announce at 2 PM tomorrow! A Valentine's Day treat for everyone!

Does anyone know of any London-based theatre technicians who are themselves queer or would be interested in queer-focused new writing? Just wanting to see who is out there!

Writers! How do you cope with writer's block? What experiences have you had with such cases and how did you work to resolve such blockages? Asking for research, ironically for a play idea I have had...!

Hey TheatreSky! Are you a writer with a work-in-progress script in need of feedback? Are you part of a project in need of support in developing a text for performance? (1/3)

Theatre Producers (preferably Queer)! Anyone out there with experience with successful ACE applications for R&D projects with a focus on outreach and creative engagement? Just had a rejection and would like to keep the ball moving!

#Classical #Music BlueSky! Anyone out there have experience in organising small scale concerts? Would really like to ask some questions and gain some insight how I could do something similar. Equally, any musicians out there?! I'm also a composer so would be great to connect!
