@MrLukowski Yes, I do remember that. He got a special VIP table.

@paulvale126 Should we start expecting you to look suspiciously the same age for the next several decades?

Just been to brilliant panel talk, ‘It’s Just a Stage - Writing for Queer Performance’, @CoastIQlitfest. Loved Charlie Josephine’s hope for future: “I would like shit-hot theatre made with kindness and curiosity, and for the buildings to take care of the humans making the art.”

When someone you’ve known since sixth-form college leaves his role in Channel 4 soap ‘Hollyoaks’, publishes a memoir the next day and includes a story involving you… @GregorTheFinn

On Arthur’s Seat for the first time since my first anniversary of coming out, in August 2000. I was with cast-mates. We were on the cusp of everything. Or is that just how I remember it? A friend from that play has since died. I hadn’t expected to be emotional. But here we are.

In Sam Wilson, Class 8C, @maybeulikeit have gifted us the spiritual heir to Adrian Mole for today. Writer-performer James Akka is utterly hilarious as the Power Point-presenting, wannabe Head Boy making his power grab in ‘Sorry (I Broke Your Arms and Legs)’ @pleasance.

@stillhungry_c’s ‘Show Pony’ @edfringe is revelatory: an honest and funny mediation by three acrobats on how women’s bodies are expected to ‘be’ in circus. It tells the personal stories behind the sequins while demonstrating the incredible skill that really counts.

Giddy up to ‘All The Fraudulent Horse Girls’. It’s a bubble-gum pink, feverishly funny and queer-as-fuck tale of one girl’s love of horses against all odds. This fantastically imaginative show is eq-fiiine. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ for my imaginary publication. @CharlesQuittner @ThePleasance

#lovebeyond by @RAWMaterialArts is a moving mood poem from the POV of a deaf man’s experience of dementia. Heartfelt performances are enhanced by tremendous, sometimes disorienting sound design and a set that mirrors the painful instability of memory.

Just seen the extraordinary #sawdustsymphony @edfringe . Think Beckett meets woodwork. Circus and clowning brimming with the joy of creation but also with a darker, eerier edge. ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ if I were officially reviewing. @ZOOvenues

@joseph_lidster Tasty, I’m sure. But it also looks like you murdered those eggs by dropping them off a building.
