Should also say I have seen 4 productions of this play over the years and this was by far the best.

Without a Paddle. Writer. TV: Succession, One Day, Killing Eve, Becoming Elizabeth. Plays: Yen: MOTHER COURAGE (Globe) Pop Music, Freak. Director / teacher / mum to Gryff - he’s much funnier than me.
Just seen Mother Courage and her Children at the Globe. Go see it. It’s a tenner to get in. It’s properly good. That play is made for that stage. Michelle Terry and cast are great. Wrap up warm, tonight was brass monkeys.

I went to this for the first time last year and it was FAB. You couldn't wish for a lovelier bunch of people and we didn't bitch about production companies or commissioners ONCE.

Been thinking a lot recently about this. I agree. I also wish companies understood that paying writers on time would lead to BETTER work from us. More relaxed, more valued, less stressed, less scrabbling around having to take on other work because we don't know when the money's coming through.

I've had a sneak peek at this and it's so fucking good. It comes from such a visceral place of truth and rawness but it's also really fucking funny and brilliantly written and illustrated. I love it.
Henry Widdicombe@henrywiddicombe.bsky.social · last yr.Okay gang. My debut comic launches on Saturday. Some friends have started posting about it so I figured I’d turn the website on for pre-orders. Thanks for even considering buying it. I’m very proud of it. widdicomics.co.uk

Lovely community creation by @annaruthjordan.bsky.social & co again. 🥳 I wonder if we can also ripple this out online? Folk keep saying they miss Theatre/Screen Tw***er for contacts & advice, but we have Bluesky. Just need to collectively talk here more instead of Meta. But real world’s best, obvs!

Can't recommend Ned's courses enough. If you're at all interested in working with young people and co-creating - you should defo go for it. Even though I'm not in that world at the moment, I found the course re-invigorated stuff for me in the plain old world of writing theatre and TV. Check it out X
Ned Glasier@nedglasier.com · last yr.I'm excited to announce three new courses - booking now! Co-Creation with Young People and Communities, in September and November. Co-Creation: Stage 2, for anyone who's done my first course and wants to go deeper, in July. Book now - they're already selling fast. www.nedglasier.com/training
Been lucky enough to do some mentoring for @littlewander.bsky.social @channel4tv.bsky.social on their Comedy Lab Scheme. Last year with @edwardeaston.bsky.social & this year with Mel Owen - both brilliantly funny & talented artists. If you're at @machcomedyfest.bsky.social check out their shows....
Lovely to hear. I wanna know which one! ;)
Pete Dodds@wordsbypete.bsky.social · last yr.Attended an excellent pitch doc workshop with @annaruthjordan.bsky.social this week. One unexpected side-effect (unrelated to pitching) is that one of the exercises Anna had us do has led to a key breakthrough in the writing of a current project. Nice!
