I’ve only ever been lead writer on a mini-series so I think people don’t think I want to do rooms. This isn’t the case! I’d love to join a room! I’d bring cake!

Opinion | I’m 16. On Nov. 6 the Girls Cried, and the Boys Played Minecraft. On the day after the election, it seemed boys and girls woke to a new reality.

β€œWhat made my skin burn most wasn’t that over 75 million people voted for Trump. It was that this election didn’t seem to measurably change anything for the boys around me. Many of them didn’t seem to share our rage, our fear, our despair.”

Streaming theatre is a separate artform from theatre. We should try to be good at both.
