Thank you so much for coming
Lots of wise words in this interview with @sarahbrigham.bsky.social on the relevance of The Great Gatsby to current life, on politics & putting it on stage at @pitlochryft.bsky.social.
So many themes we could pick up on. I think @elizabethnewman.bsky.socialβs adaptation was excellent.

What do we do about regional theatre reviewing? We need reviewers who understand and represent our audiences who will see work of all scales and go on a critical journey with us. Who will give the emerging company in the studio a chance as much as a big show in the main house.
Not F **cking sorry by Access All Areas in @derbytheatre.bsky.social studio tonight was brilliant! Catch it if you can
