A wonderful 2nd night @sandsfilms_musicroom with The Tragedy of Barnabas, banished to France for his vanity, crushed by his mother when invading his homeland. Dickensian adventures with Bartleby Wilson, Beveridge sonnets and much more. Thanks Rotherhithe! Photos @scarabpictures
A lovely thread here from dear @b10_bethany It's an opinion, of course, but it gives an idea of what we're trying to do... #makeitheroic #Shakespeare #improvisation
I've had the most magnificent time these past two evenings watching in awe as this impeccably talented bunch conjure improv magic & storytelling bliss. Thank you all so much for two captivating stories.
A thread with some of the things that make @schoolofnight special...

THE SCHOOL OF NIGHT: The 20th Anniversary Tour | Sands Music Room sandsmusic.eventive.org/film…
Fraters assemble @Coxitude, @ActorRobMounty, @JosephChance2, #OliverSenton and @dylanemery to discuss ideas for our forthcoming gigs #SandsStudios on Jul 10&11th. Shakespeare, Dickens, naval history, really large mugs, Pinter, Michael Barrymore... what will be in the mix??
Fraters Cox & Senton have been on a historical trail in #croatia -
Was Dubrovnik Illyria? For Oxfordians this garden in the Franciscan priory, could be the one that became Olivia's palace in #twelfthnight And these hedges would be the 'box trees' It certainly makes good staging!
SO delighted our upcoming gigs at #SandsStudios in #Rotherhithe can be STREAMED FROM ANYWHERE IN THE WORLD! So anyone who can't get there, because of geography or anything else can pay to watch remotely at sandsmusic.eventive.org/film… #IsItHeroic #SummoningTheMuses #hardbardics

For anyone interested in acting, theatre, the business, the socio-cultural history of Britain or just having a good laugh, you might enjoy listening to the great Kenneth Cranham here. There’s a tiny bit of me too but not enough to spoil it. bbc.co.uk/sounds/series/m002…

Both performances are also being livestreamed for anyone who isn't able to be there. A humongous thank you @schoolofnight for making them possible ❤️
Prepare to be Schooled...
Just 5 weeks to go before we return to #London to the amazing #SandsFilms for 2 nights only (Jul 10th & 11th). Twenty years in and still summoning the Muses (though at a more gentlemanly pace)... Book at sandsmusic.eventive.org/film…
