Thrilled that @KakilangArts Finding Our (Creative) Voice participant @rich_yu has his DOA work as part of Reboot Festival @BaronsCourt_W14 until tomorrow! bit.ly/3TnXF1g 🌟 #theatre #performance #art

This by @rich_yu is dark, complex, funny and disturbing. I’m thrilled we were able to create a space where it could happen @KakilangArts

@crucibletheatre @CamMackLtd @acylau @benjstones @JoannaAmpil @acylau @joannaampil the reductive, sexist, racist and misogynistic under/overtones of Miss Saigon feel icky…. Can you share any behind the scenes discourse that you as Asian artists had in engaging with this project? context matters but so does honest representation

Exciting new shows on sale soon! In the Crucible will be the epic love story Miss Saigon, by special arrangement with @CamMackLtd. Directed by Robert Hastie and @acylau, with design by @benjstones, lighting by Jessica Hung Han Yun and starring @JoannaAmpil as The Engineer.

@autarken but then how does the monarchy perpetuate itself?

dude, how is it that these white mass shooters keep living to tell the tale? buying skittles, going for a jog, or even sleeping in your bed will get you shot if you're black in america... #Buffalo

@salesses we're also expected to stay quite and be grateful for any of that success.

why is it called a stor stark when it is neither stor, nor stark? #sweden #stockholm #sverige #sverige🇸🇪

@abcnews why are you still giving that jock-sniffing toad @ChrisChristie a platform to complain about the mischaracterization of trump voters?

@pritipatel Sorry, but why would the French secure British borders? Especially after Brexit?

We also need the cooperation of the French to intercept boats and return migrants back to France. I know that when the British people say they want to take back control of our borders – this is exactly what they mean.

THREAD: The number of illegal small boat crossings is appalling and unacceptably high. The figures are shameful. France and other EU states are safe countries. Genuine refugees should claim asylum there, not risk their lives and break the law by coming to the UK.

@TedYoho i'm pretty sure calling your co-worker "disgusting", or a "f#cking b!tch" would get you fired from Whole Foods, let alone Congress.... @AOC

the miracle of endless, unchecked economic growth.... sounds more like a cancer to me, every day....

@copRECORDS How could he not know? It was in the first five seconds. Was an intentional distraction

I think the words “indivisible, with liberty and justice FOR ALL” is a statement about how powerful we are when we strive for equality #BLM #pledgeofallegiance #NoJusticeNoPeace

I had this dream that baron trump dm’d me and asked me if everything was going to be okay because his mom and dad won’t tell him anything

@Demigur1 It’s an institutionalized strategy that is counter to the longstanding social values of protecting the most vulnerable. Staying silent to stay lagom is something I won’t do.

@rich_yu To question is good, suggesting that the goverment is trying to kill off the elderly is way beyond questioning however.

I'm glad Swedes are so pleased with their Covid strategy, but it's really just modern Ättestupa. For everyone's sake, please stay home if you can. #coronasverige #tegnell #COVID19

@somethingbrite i hear you. for me, it's like this: who knows what the right call is... i hope Sweden is right. but blind obedience in any society is usually not a good thing.

@rich_yu Not pleased. (Not Swedish but I am resident here and I'm the opposite of pleased with Sweden's choice of surrender rather than fight)

@Demigur1 i think it's also worth noting that social discourse is important, so i appreciate you engaging. the Swedish gov done an amazing job of earning the trust of the people which is a good thing, but it is also our job as part of this society to question and engage.

@Demigur1 sure: politifact.com/factchecks/202…

@kokstillbehoren Sweden does not have a problem... Got it....

@rich_yu Its not an opinion. The difference in deaths can partially be explained in the way Sweden reports corona deaths and the testing strategy. The ICU´s are under heavy stress but are far from collapsing. The society works pretty well. So no, we do not have a problem or caos...

@kokstillbehoren you're entitled to your opinion, and of course, I hope you're right, but it's undeniable that the deaths per capita compared to our Nordic neighbors is several times higher.

@rich_yu Nope its working.... The strategy works.
