This year I'm offering PR training for @edfringe. Hiring a publicist isn't the right option for some companies & individuals and not certainly not affordable for everyone. I'll be running group and individual sessions. Please contact laura@laurahortonpr.com for more information.

As part of conversations recorded for Theatre Stories with @ExeterNorthcott we listened to this community member talk about their favourite memory seeing People, Places and Things on @NationalTheatre tour. We'll be posting more stories over the following weeks #theatrestories

I'm desperately in need of a treadmill so I can walk 500 miles on it in the @TRPlymouth foyer to raise money! If anyone is able to help I can make sure they get publicity. Anyone in the Plymouth area who can help, I'd so appreciate it.
I'm looking for outdoor companies & local Plymouth businesses to sponsor / support a 500 mile walk (distance from Plymouth to Edinburgh) on a treadmill in the foyer of Theatre Royal Plymouth to raise money for a new play about hoarding disorder. Can anyone help?

Opening up to new experiences in her late thirties, Sophie is exploring some long-repressed sides of herself.

I normally head to @edfringe as a PR, however, this year I'll be presenting my own play Breathless @TRPlymouth @ThePleasance. I still want to amplify other people so do tell me about your shows, I'd love to help where I can. I'd also welcome any sharing of my crowdfunder below!
Today a dream has come true, my new play Breathless has won an opportunity to be presented @edfringe with @ThePleasance & @TRPlymouth. I've been to the festival many times amplifying artists, I'm thrilled to go as an artist myself! @ThePleasance @PleasanceFuture #Futures2022
My crowdfunder: crowdfunder.co.uk/p/plymouth… the play looks at the sliding scale of hoarding disorder from my own experience.

Samskara review – Lanre Malaolu’s gem weaves Shakespeare with Sisqó theguardian.com/stage/2021/n…

A show where a group of six black men collide, fall, break + run. A show about masculinity, vulnerability + fatherhood. A @TimeOutLondon top pick. A show that reminds you to feel even in the darkest of times.
SAMSKARA's first preview is tonight, book now bit.ly/yardsamskara
Delighted to be working with @feveredsleep - do read this beautiful article from @lyngardner @TheStage about their new show We Are Not Finished @ThePlaceLondon and "their 25 years creating cross-art-form theatre with children, animals, the elderly and everyone in between..."
. @feveredsleep co-founders Sam Butler and David Harradine tell @lyngardner about 25 years of creating cross-art-form work – from inviting the elderly to talk about sex to putting animals on stage and new show We Are Not Finished @ThePlaceLondon bit.ly/2ZW0PTo

Ahead of SAMSKARA opening next Monday (!), we've been getting a sneak peek into their rehearsals thanks to Assistant Choreographer Rochea Dyer. We can't wait to share it all with you. Then we can't wait to share SAMSKARA with you.

A wonderful interview about @TerrifyingWomen @GooseTheatre with @___SAMO @Abi_Zakarian & @mogster in @stage. "They tell @NatashaTripney how the genre can remain shockingly compelling, while not resorting to tropes of gendered violence" thestage.co.uk/features/terr…
I'm thrilled to be doing the PR for this terrific project with the most incredible group of women: @Abi_Zakarian @mogster @___SAMO & @AmandaCstro. Read about in @guardianstage & make sure you get a ticket (online or in-person): goldengoosetheatre.co.uk/ter…

And if you haven't checked out the explosive trailer for SAMSKARA yet, then we suggest you do so now, get excited, then book your tickets for what we know will be the hit show of November.

SAMSKARA isn't really a play.
SAMSKARA also isn't really a dance show.
SAMSKARA is about unpacking what's behind that head nod between Black men - the love and joy behind it, not just the suffering.
