#BeyondtheBlade lending a voice and a face to the insurmountable after effects of such a tragedy. Please share. – at Lewisham, London
"He was in the wrong place at the wrong time. But when the place is between school and his mum's house and the time is 4pm then when is the right place and the right time?" Short dramas in with actors voice the pain of knife crime. bit.ly/2QfWWz3 #beyondtheblade

I first directed @SirPatStew in The Tempest @TheRSC which we had set in the Arctic. It was hot July so one day we decided to rehearse the whole play in the freezer of the Stratford Tescos. I will always remember his “we are such stuff” whispering through the boxes of frozen peas.

Regret eats ur soul & surrounds u in a cocoon that transforms u into a being that scoffs at joy. Hollow, hiding from light.

35 years of Wrighty, and it could’ve all not happened had this one person broke him.
In a world full of Jim Cannons, always chose to be an Ian Wright ❤️
if @Arsenal players actually played to give each other assists in games, we would score more and these sort of games against Burnley would be more of an exhibition match. Please it all needs to click before or at UCL final! Fluid passing, even into the goal - less ego farming!

My Father’s Shadow is out in the UK/Ireland today. If you’re free this weekend, PLEASE go to the cinema to see it. One of the best films of the year that deserves our support. If you want more stories like this, GO TO THE CINEMA & show up for these films.

Goosebumps! People often ask, is Shakespeare still relevant? Here is a great example, from the Steven Colbert Show, in which Sir Ian McKellen delivers an extraordinary speech. Shakespeare’s words are timeless, urgent and important.

Never thought I’d represent my Black & Chinese ethnicity in my work, tho I’ve had people say I look like their Jamaican auntie. Then #BlackCake came along and the rest is history. Here’s to Hapas, the Blasians and all the Jamaican aunties out there #RepresentationMatters @hulu

Israel has admitted to bombing this refugee camp, killing dozens of innocent people.
Their justification? Killing a single Hamas commander.
It is difficult to see how those continuing to support this massacre see Palestinians as human beings.
This is horrifying.
Israel just bombed Jabalia Refugee Camp. Already over 100 Palestinians are dead, with that number growing rapidly, and hundreds more are injured.
