A very, very funny turn of events

Young people gathered in front of historic UK government buildings holding a sign that reads 'VOTES AT 16' during a protest.

"theatre of the lightly uncanny" - love this! 💝

A brand new (expletive free) cover of the MC5 classic "Kick Out the Jams", by Detroit icons Suzi and Alice.

He's writing at exactly the same time as Albee (Birthday Party was published same year as the Sandbox premiered) - maybe there was some riffing or influence in both directions? (This is total speculation.)

Introducing…The Pageant Wagon Podcast!

I talk to scholars, historians, and practitioners of #medieval and #earlymodern theatre. We discuss new perspectives, staging techniques, and pedagogical strategies.

Launching April 1st!

Toy bunny sitting in front of a little grand piano. There is a pink Easter egg on the piano lid.

A window display featuring 3 ceramic cats sitting on artificial grass with plastic brightly coloured eggs and carrots strewn around them. They have bunny ears attached to them. The largest cat in the middle is yellow with blue hearts and a kind of demonic grin, and also has a furry mane attached around its head. There are two painting easels with gilt frames in the scene advertising art. The reflection of a large ornate building across the street is visible.

I took these photos of window displays in Vienna a few weeks ago. Frohe Ostern! 🐇🥚📷

‘If I didn’t have dwarfism, I’d probably be quite normcore’: Midgitte Bardot on sex, drag and street harassment Their shows caused mayhem. Now Tamm Reynolds – AKA Midgitte Bardot – is really going for the jugular, hitting back at prejudice with a wild new act

Fantastic to see this recognition of Tamm Reynolds - they're such an amazing charismatic articulate performance maker.

On cognitive fitness and nutrition: "Much of the digital content that ensnares our attention in the current moment is ultraprocessed... What is a TikTok video if not a digital Dorito? ... Perhaps consuming a few dozen book pages a day should become the new 10000 daily steps."

A group of spectators have gathered in a section of the National Gallery to watch a profane by a group of Royal Holloway students in front of early modern paintings . The red wall and multiple hanging pictures can be seen as well as the ornate white roof

Wonderful to spend a Friday evening watching our @royalholloway.bsky.social drama students performing works responding to specific images in the National Gallery’s early modern art collection.

Video Message by Willem Dafoe, World Theatre Day Message Author 2026 YouTube video by International Theatre Institute ITI

Willem Dafoe is spot on: "Theatre as a total art form can make us see what was, what is, and what our world could be."

A round white plate with a sugared dumpling in the middle of it, surrounded by pistachio sauce. There is a white coffee cup with gold handle behind it.

And finally - last but certainly not least... A Mozartknoedel! (I could only post 4 photos)

A slice of cake on a plate with 2 forks beside it. It has chocolate on top and a chocolate medallion with Mozart's name and silhouette on it.

In foreground is kammerscharrn with plum sauce. At top is a slice of chocolate cake with strawberry on top. Glass of dessert wine in between.

In foreground there is a square piece of cake. The top layer is raspberry and below it are layers of vanilla cream and poppyseed cake. There is a chocolate medallion on top that says Belvedere with an image of the palace. In the background there is a striped slice of a vanilla layered cake.

In foreground is a slice of vegan cherry crumble cake. Beside it is a beetroot latte and ticket to Hundertwasser Museum. In the background there is a slice of cheesecake.

Black and white graffiti by Banksy of a woman in a leotard doing a handstand on the wall of a destroyed building in Ukraine.

I actually really don't want or need to know what Banksy's original name was or what he looks like.

Rob Halliday on technical youth theatre Theatre must attract young people with the skills and interests that the industry needs – technical groups with equal billing to other disciplines can help bring them in, says Rob Halliday

Theatres should provide opportunities for young people to experience tech work.

"This is not just about making up for drama provision lost from schools but attracting people with the skills & interests technical theatre needs – engineering, computers, networks, graphics, gaming" @thestage.co.uk

This is so awful I'm having trouble actually processing it. It's every shade of wrong and regressive. 😡😞

Terrible rage terrible rage... wonderful rage? Half of the theatre industry's workforce will go through the menopause - so why don't we talk about what that's really like?

"We need to talk about the impact of peri/menopause – especially in sectors where precarity and scarcity mindsets leave us all too terrified to tell the truth or to be vulnerable about our struggles." From: @exeuntmagazine.bsky.social
