If anyone is applying for Clore Emerging Leaders, or is mid application process for the Fellowship or Pulse and would like a chat, I'd be happy to offer support if I can.

It’s another week of brilliant opportunities for artists & theatre talent this week, from Sheffield to Doncaster and Newcastle to Basingstoke!

Lots here for writers this week, but also stuff going on for actors and other theatre creatives. Good luck if applying!

I thought it'd be useful to share what I've learned about the different types of artist and new work programmes that exist in theatre across the country at the moment. So I've written a post about it here: tinyurl.com/44f4cad5

Overheard in the next room:
Daddy: No Ivy we’re not reading that , it’s not a bedtime book.
Ivy: IT IS A BOOK.
Daddy: we’re not reading it.
Ivy: BUT IT IS A BOOOOK.
Daddy: yes it’s a book but it’s not a book for bedtime. I am not reading “Where’s My Poo” now.

Roastie dinner with my parents and my family. Had a little moment half way through cooking for everyone - this is what life is about. Cosy times, roast potatoes and the people you love under one roof. Bloody marvellous.

Had the most beautiful afternoon yesterday with the biggest small human at The Curious Case of Benjamin Button in the west end. FRONT ROW!! The story, the harmonies, the performances… all simply incredible. Hoping all hopes that it runs and runs!
