Really enjoyed DRIFTWOOD by @verbatimfoley.bsky.social last night @traversetheatre.bsky.social. Strange visions of a coastal town and the things that lie beneath. Really gorgeous captions and video design, athletic and measured performances from Jerome Yates and James Westphal. A great night out.

It’s Pancake Day! Shrove Tuesday! The first scene of Electric Rosary, my robot nun play, takes place on this day. Please consider borrowing the script book from your local library, that helps me to buy the eggs and flour. Mmm pancakesss

Saw Driftwood by @verbatimfoley.bsky.social at Chichester Theatre this week, absolutely fantastic. A really rich thematic piece with a modern folklore nod.

Lies, LIES! I’ve misremembered the timing of my BELOVED ‘The Dread of Night’, the spookiest story I’ve ever done. Still, first Tom. And first David/Dorney team-up.
