I’m begging anyone setting out to write a piece of theatre about a historical woman to give her an actual personality beyond being a /headstrong woman raging against the system/ because if that is her only discernible trait you are doing her as much disservice as history has.
Today I cling to the impossibly vital notion that there are still people in this world making beautiful things. There is still theatre and music and stories and art showcasing how much love and light somehow endures on and on and on. May we find it in ourselves to do the same.
The amount of freelance writing job postings looking for writers with 'experience using AI to generate content' is horrifying.
That is not what writers do. Hire writers because they write, do not ask them to do your ChatGPT-ing for you. What the hell.
I think I committed a reverse Boston Tea Party today

**it's okay it was just a bit of the outer envelope. vote is still going in the post tomorrow.
Tapping into the theatre twitter hivemind please 🙏
What shows/plays/performance pieces have you seen in the UK that are:
1) Concerned with a historical event, period, or individual and/or the memory of it
2) Non-naturalistic (whatever that means to you)
