They had some lovely comments like โNormally I think theatreโs a bit cringe, but I fucking loved thatโ and โThat was better than Miss Saigon!โ
I love you Davina and Jane from Essex

Another of the Cottingley Fairies photos. A little girl is looking at what is, again, very clearly a cutout drawing of a fairy.
Yet another of the Cottingley Fairies photos. Once again a little girl is looking at what is, again, very clearly a cutout drawing of a fairy.
The final Cottingley Fairy photo. This one is supposed to be maintained as real. Again, very clearly paper cutouts. If you go look at the wikipedia page about it you can even see the original drawing from the book they were from.
Whenever people gush over AI I'm going to think about Sir Arthur Conan Doyle being utterly convinced that he'd discovered real scientific evidence of real fairies because he saw these pictures

I have also put a big dog in it.
It is a theatre script and I definitely will not be allowed to have a big dog in it. But Iโm putting a big dog in it anyway because itโs ominous. Fuck you.
I should also probably go back on mood stabilisers butโฆ shanโt! :)
