Last day to pre-register for the Shakespeare and Dance seminar at #wsc2026 organised by @winerock.bsky.social and myself. No need to supply an abstract at this stage so it’s easy-peasy. And we’re a lovely bunch. Look for Seminar No.34! www.wsc2026.org/seminars-wor...

Loved, loved, loved the new V&A East Storehouse. The kind of place where you can walk through a random fire door and stumble across the front cloth for Nijinska’s Le Train Bleu 🩰

Back from Boston and #Shax2025. Heartfelt thanks to @ellierycroft.bsky.social and @harrymccarthy.bsky.social for a super-generative ‘Performing Bodies’ seminar. And I did break out of the Prudential Center on my last day!

1,000 academic jobs gone in a week. And that's just the start. Britain - the stupid country.

Super-excited for @saaupdates.bsky.social in Boston but why, why, why do I propose entirely new content for conferences? To call it a work in progress would be generous at this point.

Seen some demand for a Shakespeare starter pack, so I’ve half-heartedly made one. I know I’m missing A LOT of people, so if you’re a scholar/student/practitioner working on/with/against Shakespeare, let me know and I’ll add you (someone else can do an early modern one!)
