Recently I gave a lecture in Budapest about my latest play, Afterwards, which I'm completing as a Playwriting Fellow at @iasceu. I talked about our post-truth world & the lure of simple narratives, & about plays I love like A Mirror by Sam Holcroft & The Writer by @ellahickson.

My play Foreverland is on at The Southwark Playhouse from now until 19th October! Part dystopian thriller, part relationship drama, Foreverland is a gripping story about the future of biotechnology. Would love to see you there. Info below: southwarkplayhouse.co.uk/pro…

Really recommend #MlimasTale @KilnTheatre - an unusual, evocative & haunting story about the cruelty of the ivory trade. The movement work was so beautiful that elephants were conjured just through the arch of a back or curl of an arm. Stunning!
The #PillowmanPlay was phenomenal last night. A gripping, beguiling & brilliantly slippery meditation on the power of stories. This production was so alive to the rhythms of the text, & its dazzling, hall-of-mirrors quality - congrats to @estreetprods & the brilliant cast! 🥳🥳

@BristolOldVic @tftheatres
was lucky enough to catch Lucy Kirkwood's new play Maryland AND Caryl Churchill's What If If Only @royalcourt last night - both challenging, beautiful, moving, urgent - both less than half an hour. Amazing programming, I want more nights like this.
I'm so thrilled that my play, Flinch, got ACE funding for its U.K. national tour this Autumn :) can't wait to work with @liamproducer - we'll announce dates & venues soon!

@BluebellaCS recently, you sent me the wrong item in the post, and when I called Customer Service the next day, the item I had ACTUALLY ordered was out of stock 😢 I'm sad! Is there anything you can do to compensate me apart from just a refund? Thank you! XOX
