How bleak.
The entire artistic team at the Theatre Royal Plymouth are being made redundant in 3 days. That’s one of the largest, most well attended theatres outside London. A theatre that now has no artists, and they won’t be coming back. Our world-beating cultural landscape is in collapse

It is really soul destroying that Nigel Farage has 1.5 million followers Yet our account, run by NHS staff to raise awareness of key issues and help lift the spirits of our colleagues, only has 600k Please follow and RT if you can to help put that right

The Theatre and entertainment industry are a huge part of GDP, yet this country continues to regard them as an afterthought, an indulgence. Even if you take all regard for culture out of the argument, simply as hard-nosed business it’s VITAL that our Theatre survives.

A passionate, urgent call from @SFP_London to the govt to secure the future of our extraordinary theatre industry. ‘Protecting and preserving what we have will cost far, far less than reconstructing it from the ruins.’ @RishiSunak @hmtreasury @CommonsDCMS @TildsleyFrance
Sonia Friedman: 'Our stages will hold the stories that help us collectively process what this country has been through. Theatres will play a huge part in helping our society – our nation – to heal... It is time to act.' telegraph.co.uk/theatre/what…

Ok. Stop what you are doing & watch this. Heartbreaking letter from @meenalsworld to her unborn child - the NHS doctor who’s trying to challenge govt for proper PPE
I wish I’d left a pile of bamboo outside the studio for you!
Today’s joy in the studio is Claire Cordier @claracords although it’s a shame that I won’t be able to see her face to face during recording! It’s so lonely in here with no one but @zoom_us @cleanfeedNET @SourceElements and @Skype as your friends!

People keep asking me if I'm enjoying having some time off ... alas, the team at @DamnGoodVoices is very much active and casting things every working hour of every day & have been since #lockdown began. No rest for Izzy, Gena or Simon. #workingfromhome Oh, studio still open too!
