I'm so very excited to have joined the Wellspring 2023 programme with seven other wonderful playwrights! @VitalXposure have created a really safe and interesting space for us.

I'd really recommend seeing this beautiful and sensitively written family drama BUNGALOW by Ruth D'Silva @theatre503. An extremely talented writer's debut - disturbing, funny and utterly brilliant.

So thrilled that my lesbian rom-com (queer joy with a lil bit of politics) has a four-week run at the glorious @KingsHeadThtr next April. Tickets on sale now! 🐶🐶🐶

Are you a dramaturg who is shit hot at narrative, character, and working with early career solo artists? I have reduced capacity atm and am looking for proven people to potench pick up some of what I can’t do. Please share! Cheers mwah mwah mwah 💖💖💖

Hi #authors 👋 I have updated my manuscript wishlist with everything I’d love to see in my subs inbox. I can’t wait to see what you’ve written 🤓 #amwriting #amquerying #literaryagent #mswishlist mushens-entertainment.com/blog/my-submis…

🚨 REHEARSAL SPACE NEEDED 🚨 Unexpectedly in need of some London rehearsal space next Mon 9th, Tue 10th and Wed 11th 10-6pm. Can pay, but not much! Please help, would be v appreciative for any leads!! #rehearsalspace

Don’t miss out on the next 2 shows 👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀👀

… So if you’ve seen and liked a show of mine and don’t mind a bit of rooftop-shouting, I’d be SO grateful. JOBSWORTH is a modern Servant Of Two Masters with a big laughs and a bigger heart. Thanks in advance and see lots of you up there! <3

@krystinanellis @mrdavebyrne @royalcourt I cried!

Hey funding/competition/initiative runners... 👇🏼 THIS is how to communicate with those who have sent in work for consideration. I always go into these things ready for rejection, but to feel appreciated for applying is a wonderful acknowledgement of submission @royalcourt 🙌🏼

A truly amazing first experience of Harrogate #TheakstonsCrime Festival - meeting so many wonderful people, and ending it in style with a birthday tea at Betty’s with @kiyarosevans @lupperswrites and @EmmaRuthDawson 🥂💕 Thank you all so much!

Yesterday I received one of the highest and most ancient honors in London, the Freedom of the City. But the celebration soured into an experience of indignity when upon arriving, I found that there was no ramp for me to access the stage. 🧵

#TeamMushens class of ‘24 at Harrogate @TheakstonsCrime Festival 🔎💕

We are with @CarysGAuthor handing out proofs of Always On My Mind at #TheakstonsCrime! Come get a copy before 2:30 👀

Found my wonderful agent @kiyarosevans of @mushensent and her lovely colleague @EmmaRuthDawson amongst the bookish crowds at #TheakstonsCrime #harrogatecrimefestival Excited for the lovely weekend ahead 💕☀️

We're excited to announce a new partnership with the @royalcourt! Our Samuel French Bookshop at the RC will be transformed into a free public library resource, allowing you to access over 5,000 scripts and theatre books. The shop will close on 27 July and reopen in the autumn. Come along to the Bookshop for free tea, coffee and biscuits on 25 July!

@IsleyLynn @newdiorama @ThePleasance @edfringe I loved it! Hilarious and kicked me in the gut - what more could you want?

Previews for JOBSWORTH @newdiorama: 3 performances 2 standing ovations 1 small fire The stats of success! Looking forward to bringing it to @ThePleasance @edfringe at the end of this month, 15mins slicker and 1000% less combustible

#Jobsworth from #IsleyLynn & #LibbyRodliffe is super funny & wonderfully chaotic, but also sobering & hard-hitting; how do families escape a cycle of debt? Libby is an acting power house, inhabiting numerous personalities (& dog) all at once. 🐕‍🦺💵🫰 A must watch @edfringe !

Huge congratulations to @Dougieclaire - overall market number one with 20k paperbacks sold this week of #TheWrongSister!
