I am about to start my MA at LAMDA. As an actor over 25, I am not eligible for most scholarships and funds - meaning drama school is going to cost me… a lot.
Will you donate £10 to help me pay for my first term of fees?

I really really loved Plewds guys @kathrine_payne is ridiculously good
Catch it before the fringe ends!!!!
I'm in the paper !
But truly, Ed Fringe has highlighted to me just how quickly things can change. Also how you have to really believe in the work you're making and be proud of what it IS achieving, not what it isn't
like SO WHAT we're losing money, we won an award so... 🙃🙃🙃
The flip side to winning an award...
Our director @issy_jacob is featured in this article discussing the struggles we've had this #edfringe. Doing and paying for everything ourselves has been exhausting and has felt genuinely hopeless at times :( inews.co.uk/culture/arts/edi…
On the train home from #edfringe24 and what a high note to end on!!! F*ckboy winning an award + we got a standing ovation again! 🥰🥰
Thank you to everyone who's been to see the show -- if you haven't yet, you have 3 more chances! Let's sell out the final three shows 🪩✂️
YAAAAY WE DID IT!!!
F*CKBOY IS AN AWARD WINNING SHOW????!!!!!
We’re speechless but want to thank @bingefringemag for this honour, our audiences for the ongoing support, and our team for their incredibly hard work 🔥
(Tickets still available so COME WATCH!!!)

It's the final week of #edfringe - when you're going to see shows, give the performers a bit extra live and energy. Uncross your arms, cheer and clap a bit louder. We're exhausted, but let's all have a great final week! ❤️

Cried on the bus home last night reading this lovely audience review 👇🏻This is what it’s all about. Thank you for sharing 🩵
Anyone else finding it really hard to sell tickets this week?? It all just feels very quiet and like no one is down for actually seeing shows??
On that note plsss come to the show tonight we need bums on seat!!!

Fellow flyer people… please stop assuming people’s gender. ESPECIALLY when flyering for a queer show.
Happened several times in the last 24 hours and it’s really not it.
#edfringe2024
What what what what!!!!!!! So so proud of @freddiehwriter and the whole team for creating this wonderful show that is now shortlisted for an AWARD!!! 💖
WE ARE OVER THE MOON TO HAVE BEEN SHORTLISTED FOR A QUEER PERFORMER’S AWARD BY @bingefringemag ❤️🌈🎆Beyond proud of our whole team for getting us here - we know we have an incredible show and to have our hard work recognised is just the best feeling ever 🥰

🎭 REVIEW 🎭
Playing @edfringe, F*ckboy is a captivating solo show that boldly explores gender dysphoria, bodily autonomy, & the intricacies of celebrity crushes from a trans perspective.
"Well-crafted & emotionally stirring."

Disappointed to see the narrative emerging around ‘solo trauma shows’ a narrative predominantly coming from men. Seems reductive, a set of conflated phrases from privileged perspectives. Things like this make me glad I’m not at #EdFringe24 & pretty sure that I will not return
Sorry about this.
On the surfeit of solo shows about awful things at the Edinburgh Fringe, and why it has become a problem...

I love these photos !
For today’s #tweetthemedia we are sharing these stunning shots taken at 1 of last week’s shows!
