Big thanks to @ben_cain for a day of Narnia planning. Good to get things underway for a December production of ‘The Lion, the Witch & the Wardrobe’. Devising deep winter at the height of summer.
What an inspiration to see the @Creatives_Now studio in full gallery mode. It's looking blooming great, go visit in Bolton Marketplace if you're in the area!

Nice one to Creatives Now members who set up and hosted a @jocoxfoundation #TheGreatGetTogether event this afternoon. Great to chat to people about the work we do and share info about what’s next. Craft, poetry, dance and good company ❤️. Big thanks to @ben_cain for supporting.

Patti LuPone: “I feel as if Broadway is turning into Disneyland, circus or Las Vegas… the ticket prices: outrageous. There’s so many obstacles that prevent Theatre from being the tool that it should be in our society, which is an education.”

We've been super lucky to have creative practitioners and theatre-makers @ben_cain and @RuthA0605 join us for #townofchildren activities.
Movement has been part of our creative play. See how our young filmmakers have started to transform capture of this for their films below.

Past Lives by Celine Song is probably one of the best films that has ever been made and 3 of the actors in it are the best actors alive right now. i assume it didnt get an oscar nom because theyre inventing the Nobel Prize For Film specifically for it !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Ready for some storytelling at Higher Blackley Community Centre! @REELmcr @factoryintl
Over the past year I've been working with @theLBT and @KirkleesLibrary to deliver Sharing Stories Standing Strong. Here's a lovely film by @BOKEHGO about the project! 🙌

Wonderful final drama session as part of @M6Theatre at @TheProudTrust. I've had a blast working with this group each week and they've definitely taught me way more each week than I've taught them! Here's their favourite ball, Ballina.
