So glad I made the trip to @BarbicanTheatre this evening to watch Hold Tight by @VincentDT. Such beautiful choreography and every person on that stage was captivating. Just getting rid of the tension headache from all the feels...
I had such a wonderful day rehearsing with Wild Nights Young Company today... they are so creative and exciting to be in the space with! 🫶
We have two exciting events coming up this month to help warm the darker evenings!
❄️
On November 20th we have DartFest, our annual young people's sharing of original work, 6-8pm.
🎭
The Tweets are very funny but what IS actually going on here?!? It's like a scene from 28 Days Later...

Back in my glamorous salmon get-up for @medtheatre's summer production, LEAP - performing outdoors with two incredible pals. Great working week!

Excited to be running this project with my MED pals, it's sooo important that we keep the arts in mainstream education in any way we can! #artsareimportant
We are delighted to have been awarded a grant by @phf_uk to enhance our work in schools and encourage arts based learning as a standard practice in Devon education settings.
And just like that, #Peat @medtheatre is done! It’s been quite the ride but to be with the cast and team each night laughing and playing with the script has been so uplifting 🤎
Time for a day or two’s recuperation…
