On Monday, I presented on 'the politics of class in post-1950s theatre, focusing on how various plays confront and critique the British class system, delving into how theatre in Britain has mirrored the evolving class structures. By analyzing plays like Tory Boyz, Look Back in Anger, and Versailles, the session shed light on the intricate dynamics of the class struggle. - Tory Boyz scrutinizes the disconnect between modern political elites and the working class. - Look Back in Anger portrays a working-class figure challenging societal norms in post-war Britain. - Versailles contrasts aristocratic luxury with the turmoil of the French Revolution, symbolizing the breakdown of rigid class boundaries. These plays offer profound insights into the complexities of class, showcasing the tensions between different societal strata. The presentation highlighted the grievances of the working class and the complacency of the elite, set against the backdrop of historical and political transformations. The analysis underscored how theatre acts as a mirror to society, reflecting, critiquing, and influencing the discourse on class in Britain. It demonstrated how these theatrical works serve as powerful tools for exploring and reshaping perceptions of class within the national narrative.

So, this is engagement number 2 next week. I shall be talking about the challenges and success of working, or attempting to work to the Theatre Green book targets. ??This will be a mix of short talks and a Q&A session with myself and fellow pms, designers and backstage folk. #theatre #sustainability #collaboration

Read my latest review: Fairview at Capital Stage directed by Anthony D'Juan

Even if you have to use special glasses, like those used during the solar eclipse, to protect your senses WATCH this documentary! It will explain ‘money economics’ as you have never suspected.

Last night two thousand Londoners mobilised at short notice to say no to censorship, no to #antisemitism, and yes to freedom of artistic expression. Around 36 hours ago earlier, antisemitic thugs had daubed the Phoenix Cinema (one of the oldest cinema's in the UK) in London with red paint and the false slogan 'Say no to Artwashing'. The Phoenix Cinema was screening that night a documentary on the massacre that took place on October 7th at the Supernova Music Festival, during which hundreds of young adults were murdered, multiple women were gang raped and multiple hostages were taken. The idea that a documentary (using footage from the Go Pro cameras that the monsters used to film what they were doing) is 'artwashing' or 'propaganda' is disgusting, on so many levels. It beggars belief that anyone with a shred of humanity can claim this. What appalling hatred is in the minds of those who go out and and daub a hub of artistic expression with red paint, the colour of blood? There is no place for hatred. No place for shutting down documentaries and other forms of artistic expression. No place for racism, for #antisemitism, for #islamophobia, for anti-Arab hatred, for anti-Israel hatred. Shame on Ken Loach and Mike Leigh for resigning as patrons of the Phoenix for screening this film. You will not be missed. The only path to peace is through the acquisition of knowledge. Peace requires mutual understanding - how can that be achieved by boycotting the documented truth? https://lnkd.in/eBta563q
