Frothing at the mouth…. I NEED to make a trip down to Wellington for this Katherine Mansfield exhibition…. it is calling my name

Mansfield’s shawl woahhhhh I need to see it in person (and I need one for myself)… and look how similar it is to the one in Women in Love

it’s on until November YAYYYYYY!! Trust, I will not be missing it

Gonna play a fun little drinking game tonight where I take a swig every time there’s a bit in the play that I would be very uncomfortable with my mum seeing (as my mum sits in the audience)

also RESTART THE TIMER… broke my three weeks without smoking streak

Closing night done and dusted🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳🥳

From the cast💖💖🫶🏻🫶🏻 AWWWW

Standout reviews from tonight: “are you alright?” “It started off lesbian as, and then Freudian as, and then I didn’t know what was going on”

Reading the card that my cast gave me and they said my play rlly challenged them AWWW IM SO GLAD

It’s not the day after closing night if you are not hungover as shit

Mumzy is getting me to go and join her for brunch with my aunty but I am not in a state to be around both of them at the same time.. and NOOOOO they’re gonna be like “what were you thinking when you wrote that play??!!” (will do something slightly more family friendly next time)

Getting flowers from my male friends who don’t usually gift flowers is hilarious bc bro gave them before the show, not after- and left the price tag on…. oh crikey…… bless him, but (I say this with love) please learn a thing or two about theatre etiquette and gifting etiquette

Pretty pretty post-show flowers 💐💐

Filming all done (post production soon tho.. but that is not my area), play all done.. what ever am I going to do with my life now??? I guess I should get back to writing that other play I started (this will be the first time I’ve written something jolly and lighthearted)

This is the first time in the past couple of weeks that I’ve actually spent more than three hours at a time in my own house (except for when I’ve been sleeping).. feels weird to not be practically living at the theatre or at the shoot location.. what ever shall I do with myself

the answer is… WRITE ANOTHER PLAY

Me trying to write a script set in the 21st century

Maybe I’ll just do one with people who happen to be incredibly well-dressed and have a midcentury house.. and there will be NO references to iphones, tiktok, twitter etc, because that is just tacky

One of these days I am going to have to bite the bullet, suck it up, and start actually using Linkedin. It may be a good place for me to talk about my creative projects
