The Pleasance are #EdFringe to me. Big comedians in the Courtyard, new companies trying to make it work in the Dome & everything in between. @nic_connaughton & team were nothing but helpful with us in 2018 & I can't wait to be back next year to support. But in the mean time ⬇️

We need your help. For the first time in 36 years, the gates of the Pleasance are locked and the Courtyard stands empty. Please consider donating the cost of a ticket to our Crowdfunder campaign, here. bit.ly/30aLef8 Together, we can open the gates again. 💛

3 years since @TheBackpackEns performed The Search for a Black-browed Albatross for the first time. Proud of what that show become and how many people we were able to share it with. ‘This was all for you, now I’ve found this bird so I could find you too, now I’ll fly away‘.

Bad news: We are not taking a show up to the fringe this year... Good news: There are some amazing shows up there, including our friends at @lincolncompany who are producing 3 new pieces of work. and as always, check out the guys over at @PoltergeistTC. Tickets will sell out.

It’s #WorldTheatreDay & 1 year since @SamJaneMiles was headline news at @NSDFest. In the 12 months that followed, we‘ve travelled the country searching for a black-browed albatross. We have had some great audiences & can’t wait to get back out there with a brand new adventure...

Lovely afternoon at @DerbyTheatre to talk all things fundraising. Huge thanks to @Djhackney and @ando3_ @ingoodcoEM for a brilliant look into different strands of funding. New things learnt & old things solidified.

FUN FACT: The common albatross enjoys a diet consisting mainly of beautiful beer battered calamari with a side of tartare sauce. Unfortunately they don’t serve squid in the Nottingham University food court, so we’ll go for pizza instead...

Thanks for the rehearsal space @LPAC_Theatre. After an exhaustive search, we can confirm that the albatross is not in Lincoln. Nottingham, we heard it was making tracks in your direction, and we're on our way. newtheatre.org.uk, tonight & tomorrow, 7.30pm start. 🎒
