Arts Leaders Winter Residency: FOUR DAYS LEFT to apply!
Arts leaders are not often afforded the time and space for connection, reflection and action. Our unique approach will enable you to step away from the day to day to zero in on the important work.

Who’d be interested in a masterclass led by *moi* on how to budget for a small business? I’ve been teaching it privately and thinking about opening it up for a group teaching session 💛
injecting some cuteness into this app with these two, introducing John Lewis & Baklava. Adopted from the McDermotts @openspacer so forever part of the @improbable1 gang
How many Huns does it take to smash a caravan to pieces? Approx 5. @improbable1

While you’re at it, listen to ep 1 - @eclaughton is equally as brilliant and I loved hearing about being an ED, her thoughts around power and money and diversifying income and everything else. @BoyAndPen is brilliant too. Basically, everyone is great, listen to the podcast.

How can Fringe add the greatest value to the UK creative sector?

once again these guys delivered. theatre at its best, what it should be for, telling the stories that are unheard. the care & dedication I know went behind this show (every show tbh) is unmatched. everyone should be taking notes from @LungTheatre, true co-creation & well good art
also big shout out to the whole creative team, and that cast! Not to make it about me (but I will ok fine) but feel very proud to have had a part in this companies journey.
And I’ll say it again, these companies need support. Making art AND making real change in the world costs money. So if you can support @LungTheatre then you should. lungtheatre.co.uk/support-us
They are 🐐
Barnsley-based @LungTheatre was one of 275 arts organisations who became new @ace_national National Portfolio Organisations last year. Hard to find enough superlatives to describe the excellence of their verbatim musical #TheChildrensInquiry at @swkplay. On til Sat. #LetsCreate
