Really enjoying the new series!
Can I make a suggestion for a Waldy & Bendy Award? Best Regional Art Museum.
My vote goes for Aberdeen Art Gallery.

Nice little interview about my Van Gogh play in the Linlithgow Gazette and another here (falkirkherald.co.uk/art…) from the Falkirk Herald.

I would say please come to the evening of cocktails and art I’m hosting at Edinburgh’s Dovecot Gallery, but it’s already sold out!!
Can’t wait for an evening exploring one of my favourite groups of artists, along with some stories and delicious drinks…

πŸ“£ Cumbernauld Theatre has been removed from Creative Scotland's portfolio of funded organisations, placing the company, its employees and its vital work with the local community at risk.

At this critical time, we need our community more than ever: lanternhousearts.org/future-at-risk

Decided to forgo the rugby for some different drama this afternoon!
I’ve seen a fair few productions of Macbeth, but this one from @donmarwarehouse.bsky.social has to be up there as one of the best…

Hello Bluesky! Finally joining yourse here, and I thought it would be nice to let you know I'm directing this.

Had a first read-through last night and it's given us lots of ideas, looking forward to developing it further!

Then after refulling with coffee and cake I enjoyed some of their Chinese New Year celebrations, including a dance performance, tour of the collection with a curator and a behind the scenes tour of the museum stores.
Perfect day for an art history geek!

I saw David Harrower’s adaptation of Prime of Miss Jean Brodie there. Great, intimate space.
And enjoy Natasha Pierre, I saw the Broadway productions. A bit bonkers, but great score.

Yes, hopefully.
I’ll be posting all the details of venues in the next couple of months.
Would be great to see you there too Thom.

Excited to be heading out on the road this year performing another one-man show, and touring from Aberdeen to the Borders!

Stunning retrospective of Everlyn Nicodemusβ€˜s work at the Scottish National Gallery of Modern Art just now.

I love the chutzpah of her going to the National Museum of Tanzania and demanding they mount an exhibition of her work only six months after she’d started painting!

Happy 1st of December. Today, a 🧡 of Scottish women worthy of statues. Statues memorialise in a specific way. They honour achievement. First, Jennie Lee, MP and founder of the Open University. The work she did as Arts Minister was transformative. Also = Mrs Aneurin Bevan. /1

Couldn’t agree more.
I did my first uni dissertation on The Slab Boys plays and was lucky enough to meet him a couple of times.
