Okay - I’ve seen Nosferatu! I enjoyed it more than I’d expected. I’ll do two separate responses: one about the Romani rep, and the other more general and in terms of adaptation. So let’s start with the Roma question. The actors were nonprofessional Roma actors 1/

Loving this rehearsal period and all of the actors in it

Week 2 of rehearsals for Of Mice and Men. In the groove but lots of knotty stuff to unpack. Love this bit of rehearsals @derbytheatre.bsky.social

Good day of rehearsals for Of Mice & Men. Such a great company of actors

Great first day of rehearsals with this lovely lot!

Back when the other place was a (reasonably) friendly place I used to enjoy the regular #acting Career Q&A sessions (& a few kind acting folk have say they did too). If anyone has any #Theatresky type questions I can help with here, please do send them my way & I'll do my best. 🙏🏼

Started to put together a backstage theatre crew starter pack. More searching to do to find people! Who are we missing? Come over to the darkside. #TheatreSky #Theatre #Backstage #Crew

Late to the party but what a joy Slava’s Snow show is #Theatresky

Well wasn’t that lovely? Ok folks- that’s it! Back to reality tomorrow. Although we still have a week of “ what day is it”

Feathers McGraw as a traitor was a brilliant pre- ad

This from Dan. I am very sad to read about #freedomstudios closure as it's a #Bradford theatre company I've written for. I would add that what is happening in public with companies is happening in private to individual artists. The lack of commissions and opportunities knocks on & is taking a toll 👇🏻

Here is the Writers Guild of Great Britain #WGGB's response (from yesterday) re the #UKGovts consultation on #AI and #copyright in the UK. V worrying times. writersguild.org.uk/copyright-an...

A tough few days of theatre companies announcing they are closing due to funding - it’s tough out there!

This spring, #DerbyTheatre presents Steinbeck’s timeless classic #OfMiceandMen with #OctagonTheatre, #HullTruck, and #tbtLake. Running 6 Feb - 1 Mar, 2025, it’s a moving tale of friendship and dreams. Cast: William Young, Luke Richards, Liam King & many more. Read the full article 👉 bit.ly/3VButXZ

Radio 4 have just started a Coward season. The first one out the block has Peggy Ashcroft as Judith Bliss. She plays it for real without mannerisms. It illuminates the play. Free to listen on BBC Sounds, people of Sky

This could be the most useful starter pack of them all… #theatresky #backstage

We’ve had an actor down with Covid so…. I had to step up 😬
