Hi again theatre blue skyπŸ‘‹πŸΌ
I’m looking for any guidance on applying for Theatre Tax Relief for the first time. If anybody who follows me has experience applying, helpful documents, or insight into how long the process takes etc, I’m all ears! πŸ‘‚

Hey funding bodies/applications

1 don’t CC every applicant email into the announcement of who is progressing, gdpr who?
2 How HARD is it to mail chimp β€˜hello (first name)?’
2 Not able to give individual feedback? DON’T give vague, patronising, across the board feedback. How is that helpful?

Birdwatching

A perfect boiling pot of paranoia, superstition and adolescent insecurity that hangs on a chilling question: who is watching who? With female, queer and neurodivergent perspectives centre stage πŸ’™

Proud proud proud of this little company that me and my best friend set up in 2021 to make distinctively dark, female led horror theatre. Amazing what two idiots in the north of england can do when we actually try. Roll on 2025 ✨

I’m a huge fan of taking a very long time to carefully look at one of the many bookshelves in our flat, deciding which specific book I’d like to start reading tonight, putting my chosen book on the bedside table, getting into bed… and then proceeding to scroll on my phone for approximately 3 hours

The poster for Birdwatching with star ratings at the top in red. It's a linocut style poster with blue background. White border and sharp branches surround a drawing of a girl whose eyes are scribbled out in red and blue. Text reads 'Birdwatching' 'A new play by Madeleine Farnhill' 'Off Fest Nomination - The Hunger' 'Black Bright Theatre Company'

A rubber plant in a white pot and a spider plant in a 1up pot on a white table. Next to them is a white christmas themes lantern with candle and incense burning. Behind is a decorated christmas tree.

I don’t want to girl boss anymore. I want to play Stardew Valley for 18 hours straight and poison the town soup with the Mayor’s underpants.

My uber driver is number 33 in the queue. The waiting music is 4 bars of impressively irritating ambient soundscaping. It’s extremely loud.
Will he get to the front before I get dropped off? Stay tuned to find out.

A fluffy, golden small god asleep on a gray cushion. The dog is cuddling a white person’s arm. Next to them is an Nintendo switch remote.

Bro does he even realise I’m trying to purge The Kings Maze without any spare lives or healing herbs in For The King on the Nintendo Switch?? Doesn’t seem like he realises what is at stake here if I don’t get my arm back :/

I studied Philosophy and Religion at @sheffielduni.bsky.social, but now work in theatre. Plato would be so disappointed… but my guy Aristotle gets me πŸ₯°
