#Shakespeare & theatre friends, check out @creationtheatre. Just saw very smart Zoom production of Tempest. At long last, an online theatre experience that worked! Recording streams today 7 PM London time--last chance to see it. Look for me during audience participation time.🤪

Congrats @PascaleExeter and collaborators! Can't wait to hear what you discover. You are doing critical work.
Friends, this is a piece of news we've been sitting on for too long: with @creationtheatre's fabulous @lucymaskew, @RachieNix and I have got @ahrcpress Covid-19 funding to produce some research that will help other companies and performers make transition to Zoom performance.
