Been battling away for MONTHS on a new three -hander - ghost - stage play. Finally nailed the 1st draft today. (Don’t ask if it makes sense/is any good) De mob happy baby.

Interessant article sobre la representació al cinema de la relació entre el poder i el sexe (de pagament i no). Sobre això, a la memòria em vé aquesta magnífica obra de @tanikagupta.bsky.social, 'Sugar Mummies' (2006), sobre turisme sexual i cosificació. elasombrario.publico.es/hay-muchas-f...

Just been to watch the extraordinary Kyoto @Sohoplace . #climatechange Wonderful staging and such an important play about what we’re doing to this planet great to see @raadrawi.bsky.social on stage!

A fun day editing my play for NT Home.

“We can disagree and still love each other unless your disagreement is rooted in my oppression and denial of my humanity and right to exist” James Baldwin

Just finished a first draft of a new play. Feeling very smug. It’s long, it needs work but it’s done. (For now)

Beautiful exhibition @Victoria and Albert Museum #TheGreatMughals

Heading back to Blighty after a wonderful break in Kenya. So nice to see the sun and blue skies!

Currently having chill time on the coast in Kenya. Reading a fab novel by the amazing Zadie Smith. Fascinating to see what others are doing around the pool. Knitting, a couple of us reading books but mainly STARING- SCROLLING on their phones.

What a year it’s been!

There are so many aspects and nuances to the fall of the Assad regime in Syria. But what this will embolden an already brass-necked Israeli regime to worries me greatly. Let's not start me on the mainstream media wording of the ascending 'rebels' mostly ignoring the concerning aspects there too.

Such a joy to hear @tanikagupta.bsky.social discussing her brilliant play The Empress, with the wonderful Dr Lesley Nelson-Addy. I loved delving into the play's context snd getting teaching tips from Blue Coat School. Email [email protected] for the CPD recording

Gosh it’s nice to see some blue sky and reacquaint myself with the Sun 🌞☀️🕶️

I had a lovely birthday today, spent it with good friends. Ate drank and laughed so much we forgot to take any photos. But it happened . great fun was had by all and cake was consumed.
