What is Generation FOMO? 🤔 Generation FOMO is a verbatim play created from interviews conducted by Kent Artists in Residence Portrait Theatre with students from Kent as well as local primary and secondary school pupils. The play is about their relationships with their phones and social media and the impact this has on their day to day lives. Go behind the scenes of the project and dive into the psychology at bit.ly/4hdoba0 #MentalHealth #UniKent

@SarahFoxCoach And something I read last year and loved. It’s non fiction but it’s a beauty! A reflection of the Guardian’s theatre critic Arifa Akbar’s relationship with her sister written after her sister died. I love it: Consumed by Arifa Akbar.

Dear followers, I should like you to know that on Boxing Day, in Rome, after taking a comfortable walk to the Piazza del Popolo, followed by a stroll through the Villa Borghese, and then back to the apartment, I had a fall.

Fucking hell, Richard E Grant's Desert Island Discs is so, so devastating. Almost a minute of silence after his last song, then just the sound of him gasping. Really moving, intimate, beautiful.
