Not ill, bereaved or penniless. Although dependent for my living on the performing arts – a sector so savaged by lockdown that it is at risk of permanent mutilation – I have so far been fortunate. I am as yet physically unscathed. Merely topsy-turvy.
I prefer reading Shakespeare. It’s better when it hasn’t been ruined by a bunch of amateurs.
Is this a BLM casting?
Not for those of us who do not live in a city. Lockdown theatre has been a joy and a time when the National Theatre truly earned its name. NationalTheatre Surely this is the way forward for theatregoers countrywide , rather than just a small elite.
