My home city has ambitions - to be honest I have not been convinced recently with 'years of culture' - a bit of a poisoned chalice - however Glasgow 1990 European City of Culture did change my life and I will always be grateful. So let's see what Jerez will do. I'm optimistic.
such great memories - thank you
@alanlydd. Another trip down memory lane, and another brilliant production. A Clockwork Orange 1995.

The 4th version of our show - different in every place we visit - this one made in Barrow, with Barrow stories told by Barrovians in collaboration with @BarrowFull and The Forum Theatre
Continuing rehearsals of the Barrow version of Sinfonia a collaboration with @BarrowFull and @theforumbarrow. We are working on an intimate version in a newly created pop-up theatre because the main house has some technical problems. I think this version will be so beautiful

92% of people under 25, and 67% of people in the UK wish to rejoin the EU.

It's #FriendshipDay! 💜
Feeling socially connected is an important part of being human, and improves our health & well-being – no matter what our age.
Take the time to reach out to an older person around you. A simple gesture could make a big difference! #AddingLifeToYears

Dinner with the Arts Option team after a long rehearsal day. I am so lucky to still be doing this work with such brilliant people. #artwiththeexperienceofage #HongKong #creativeageing
