Lori is brilliant. She has put so much personal experience, strength and sensitivity into creating this work. Any actors available to help?

The withdrawal of the opportunity to apply for direct funding through the Creative Scotland Open Fund for Individuals will deprive the majority of playwrights in Scotland the means to work and destroys any sense that their work is valued by those who fund our culture.

We need to talk about the 18-25 age bracket for opportunities and why it doesn't work for artists who lost 3 years of development to the pandemic ✌️

Hate mobs falsely thinking a cisgender woman athlete is trans is exactly why bathroom bans will never work. Cisgender women come in all shapes and sizes. The same people furious over this video who thought she was trans would instigate violence against her in a bathroom.
Cannot think of a better image of the fight of women against the crazy Trans lobby.
Readers added context they thought people might want to know
