To everyone and anyone who saw and liked ORLANDO in 2019 - a pre-pandemic one-woman miracle show that started on a £400 quid budget and nearly made it to New York, were it not for covid...well, down but not out, Lucy Roslyn is back with her next extraordinary play @finborough ...

Curious how there was no grand announcement to open 'The Mixing Room' - I wonder if they're slightly embarrassed about something...

I think this is so thoroughly deserved - this company has been so good to freelancers, even those not actually contracted to them, through the year. I think they're thoroughly good people down to their bones.

The most criminally uncelebrated director in the UK, @lucypapoosky has directed a filmed version of @tristanbernays play 'Testament'. Big ol' spread in the FT. Cannot wait to see it - missed it first time round.

IT'S A MOTHERF***ING PLEASURE is only a week and a bit away. The perfect time to buy a ticket I'd say, and look, @EveningStandard said it was good and everything! Come find us in the Cage @VAULTFestival between the 21st and 26th Feb.

The feeling when a depression and/or [insert mental health ailment here] clears, and you can actually work and think again, feels fucking superb. It's a lot like spring.

@lyngardner @TheStage I tried to say something about this experience of coverage following JMK win, if it's of interest. Only 3 London ADs came to the show.

RIGHT. E mailed an agent on behalf of an actor. Gave details and an invite, no spotlight link. Agent rejects invite, but tells me I 'might like to think of including a spotlight link in your lovely e mail' CHECK IT YOURSELF. CHECK IT YOURSELF RAAAAAAAAARRRRGRGH. YOU'RE AN AGENT.

Remembering Orlando in @59E59 last month. My faith in @lucyroslyn status as one of the best actors I've ever worked with continues. The team of @pslightdesign @KieranLucas Sophie Thomas, and @kailiebe_ But mainly to @JessieAnand who made it happen And @mrdavebyrne .
