Here We Are at the National Theatre. Picture taken from audience of the set. A white floor and large panelled wall, mirror panels on the side wall and a ladder. Two actors on stage. One hoovering the set.

‘And that means something. That we’re here.’

Watching a group of characters desperately searching for meaning/escape while knowing there will be no more songs because their composer has died… I thought this was brilliant. Very entertaining. Deeply moving. #HereWeAre @nationaltheatre.org.uk

The person next to me was so excited to get a kazoo and then it just… didn’t work?? Like she was blowing into it and just no sound coming out. She was so upset.

Making the most of my 3 day visit to my parents by using their Sky subscription to binge White Lotus

Biggest commitment to a 3 second joke I've ever seen

I had the same thing! Just stared blankly at the Netflix screen trying to work out if I could handle the next ep

It was pretty much exactly how you’d imagine it!

This was so good!! One of my top Ed shows from last year

‘Joyful and Uplifting’ 4 star review West End Best Friend for Drag Baby. A blonde drag queen with comically large prop red lips in the middle of a lip sync routine.

‘Guttural laughter’ 4 star review Theatre and Tonic for I Fucked You in My Spaceship. 2 people with a look of comical concern on their faces.

The Happy Prince Musical. A young man in Victoria shirt and waistcoat puppeteering the Prince’s golden head.

Don’t Smoke in Bed Production photo. A young woman in grey hoodie holding onto the leg of a paper creature hanging from the sky.

But most important, entertaining, compelling stories! HMU!

Looks like good(ish) news potentially, but mad this has maybe only happened because of rumours causing major panic

Apparently turning 28 means spending 20 mins on the phone to my mum enthusiastically telling her about the oven cleaning kit I’ve just bought. She was genuinely thrilled tbf.

Someone’s posted about it in the Facebook producers group and there seems to be some wording on the website which strongly suggests it. Apparently full announcement in 2 weeks.

Just catching up on this. Bloody hell. So 2 unsuccessful goes on an app will then lock you out entirely for a year?? Awful!

Loved having a show on here last year. Sad that London is losing another studio space.

Can’t believe it’s still January and I’ve possibly seen the two best shows I’ll see all year (Benjamin Button and Great Comet fyi)

All my methods to date for getting a ticket have failed. Send prayers.

Benjamin Button hit me even harder tonight that it did the first time. Left the theatre an absolute mess. What a show!!

I revisit it frequently!

Not moving from the sofa for 2 weeks and then going straight into a day of stage combat workshops was some interesting planning
