My favourite one recently is "Actor Gareth Hunt stars in local am dram production 18 years after his death!" We saw said production (in fact I've seen both - the 1979 one when I was an 18 year-old English/Drama undergrad.) The confusion was that the guy in this year's one is also called Gareth Hunt.

Those were the days! 😂

I'm relieved I live in England. What people can fail to see is that it's the choice that is the desperately hard part. The solution shouldn't be. I have supported close family in similar circumstances and it's heartbreaking. It's still a loss and there will be grief but there must always be choice.

I think one of the most disrespectful behaviours is when fans, who have only come to see a particular celebrity, miss the end of the show to run round to the stage door in the hope of meeting their idol. No appreciation for the hard working cast or the magic of theatre.

Oh wow! Rude! 🙄 You just can't get the audiences these days! So glad you saw it though and in London! We had the pleasure of Mason Alexander Park's stunning performance. Their talent is off the charts. I was channeling my inner Mimzi that day and dressed for the occasion. 😉

Good idea! 😊

Great news! Look after yourself and rest up. 🫂

On the point of #Hazvember someone who definitely wasn't me (ahem! 😉) didn't realise that we couldn't binge-watch the whole lot and consequently let out an undignified little shriek of disappointment, when the end of episode 2 segued into a different show. 😭

Even Twitter has its relatively safe spaces if you're careful & stick to interacting with people you know. I got caught up in a bizarre conflict with a disenchanted ex-Pret a Manger worker whose whole feed was dedicated to wreaking vengeance on them. All I'd said was I had a baguette for lunch! 🤦‍♀️

Another opening of another show! Looking forward to tonight, sitting amongst my props, slurping up the adrenaline flowing from our tiny stage. Lurking and listening in the wings. Break multiple limbs Alexandra Players! 🎭

I'm an ally and I really appreciated the free stickers, so thank you. 🤗 Haven't decided where to stick it yet (polite suggestions only, please! 🤭) I think the message works well for all of us who enjoy being our own unique selves and have maybe been obliged to conform for one reason or another.

Only one thing to say...

Hello 🦋 👋 it's been a while! Just dropped in to say thanks to MCM Comic Con for an amazing Saturday! Had a blast cosplaying Hazbin's Rosie and of course a humongous thank you to the lovely @amirtalai.bsky.social for being a wonderful human and for making an older gal very happy! 😊❤️

"What's Montague? It is nor hand, nor foot, Nor arm, nor face. O, be some other name Belonging to a man. What's in a name?"

Beautiful girl! 😍 I'm glad she's doing a bit better now.

Yes but a lot of people who are bipolar manage their illness through bravery, determination, the right medications & therapies & using their struggles to encourage others. Zero sympathy for a man/baby who has more money than compassion and wimps out at the first sign of not getting his ego stroked!

Popular meme format, grandma labeled with "bluesky's public launch was one year ago today." Younger person helping her labeled with "sure grandma let's get you to bed."

happy first birthday to Bluesky, and what a year it's been!

with every day, the need for an open network that puts people first becomes increasingly clear. we're glad to be building this with you. after all, the heart of a social network is the people.

Happy Birthday @mchshe.bsky.social ! Hope you have a wonderful day and an amazing, exciting and fun-filled year ahead! ❤️🎉🎁🎂🥂🍾🎭🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿

Hope they brought their umbrellas! 😉

Why don't I work there anymore? 😭 Actually, even seeing the filming wouldn't be worth going back to work there. I did my 30 years. They just have to come back to Bloomsbury for one scene at least!! 🙏

They're all amazing but the third one just edges it for me. 🧙

Thanks for sharing, Becky. So glad you both had a wonderful time. 😊

Repeating on here, so apols. to those who have already seen it on El*n's Hell Hole! 😁
Borrowed the dress from Shax and the necklace, bracelet and earrings from Gloria! 😉😇😈 @AlexPlayersSE7 Christmas meal. Princess of Wales pub, Blackheath. @louise_gaul and @jodie_coughlan 🥰

Everyone needs a mischievous scamp in their life! 😂 AO3 is for entertainment and escapism, not for RL but much like acting, provides a valuable steam valve for all those tricky little emotions! 😉 Also there are some stonkingly good writers on there! 🤗

Lol! I love this for me! 🤣 That was a fun quiz! 😉

I'm re-writing the words to Away in A Manger in my head now, seeing that! Good job! 😄

Thank you to everyone who's donated so far we have reached 30% of our goal! ⭐️

Let's keep it up! (Every little bit helps 🩵)

We had the old photo album out last night, at rehearsal, with pics of the first go round with our current play #SteelMagnolias in 2000. Twenty-four years ago! Two of us re-cast, one directing, one backstage. 😉 @AlexPlayersSE7

I was thinking the same thing! Morning tonic! 😊
