Wonderful - and humbling - to watch Bodies of Water a theatrical response to Warsan Shire’s poem, Home, performed on the shoreline as part of @gdifestival by ActorsTouringCompany directed by Matthew Xia who staged the brilliant The Architect on a bus last year

Wow, astonishingly dark and brave film by Zoe Kravitz. Up there with Promising Young Woman. And Naomi Ackie is the real deal, as we all predicted theguardian.com/film/article/2…

Fascinating piece. And the contents of Emily Maitlis's handbag have made me feel So Much Better thetimes.com/uk/royal-famil…

Probably the loveliest, most redemptive film of the year theguardian.com/film/article/2…

I was bowled over watching this funny, smart play about friendship, cooking, desire and (yes) finding fulfilling work. And I don't like chicken AT ALL National Theatre theguardian.com/stage/article/…

As a friend said when we came out of the #Beetlejuice #Beetlejuice screening - that's the first time that song has ever made sense! slashfilm.com/1659526/beetle…

So many of us have watched 👑 Lorraine from Clocking off to The Street to Moving On But personally James Graham has given Lorraine the role of her career in Daphne Sparrow and she should be showered with awards, she LEAD the Series with grit, passion, strength 👑 #Sherwood

So obviously Emily Maitlis (and now her avatar Ruth Wilson) is my scary girl crush. But this is so nuanced and smart. Journalists will love it. Props to Maitlis - in killer sequined dress - who stayed to the end of launch. After all the actory people had left #arightroyalscandal

Thank you so much to everyone who lived through 1994 & helped me to research this piece with such great anecdotes Dominic Lutyens Grant Gibson Caroline Roux Janice Morley Peter York marcus field & Alexander McQueen's mighty biographer Andrew Wilson telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/09/0…

🔙 St John restaurant is serving a menu with 1994 prices – the year food, art, sex and politics found a new expression. What was behind it all? Take a trip down memory lane ⬇️ telegraph.co.uk/news/2024/09/0…

Thank you also to John McTernan who helped me see the bigger picture about what 1994 might lead to - consumer capitalism, identity politics, boomers versus millennials, sky-high rents. Though it does seem like a golden era now

My interview with Tamzin Outhwaite who will, I think. be inspired casting for Beverly at 53 (Alison Steadman was 31!). And C5's The Wives by Helen Black (who co-created women's prison drama, Life, with Jimmy McGovern), is glamorous, high-octane fun telegraph.co.uk/tv/0/tamzin-ou…

Cannot wait for this. Only Emma Rice could think of staging Cary Grant being chased by a small airplane in a cornfield! Hitchcock's North by Northwest Is Getting a Campy Stage Adaptation | Playbill playbill.com/article/hitchc…

Dazzled by beautifully curated Van Gogh, Poets & Lovers. It only covers two years in his life when he lived and worked in south of France. But colour and passion radiate off the canvas even when he is battling mental illness. Many pictures I’d never seen before @nationalgallery

A new addition to my love affair with films and plays about three sisters. Tackles important end-of-life issues but also the wonderful, crazy, at times toxic, bond between sisters who have lived v different (but equally valid) childhoods screencrush.com/his-three-daug… ScreenCrush

Tom Scutt’s extraordinary set for Fiddler on the Roof Open Air Theatre We really did see a musician play in a raised field of wheat. Costumes have slightly steam-punk feel even though it’s Russia 1905. Not surprising when Tom transformed Playhouse into the Kit Kat Club for Cabaret

Terrific to see Anne Odeke turn her one-woman play (about a Senegalese princess who entered a 1908 Essex beauty conquest) into a spirited ensemble piece ⁦Shakespeare’s Globe⁩ theguardian.com/stage/2022/apr…
