Still recovering from Fringe but thought I’d compile all the lovely feedback we got for Antigone: The Musical @theSpaceUK - any producers/venues interested in this 5⭐️ new musical please do get in touch! #newmusicaltheatre #mt

🚨RESEARCH SHOWS GENDER IMBALANCE IN WRITERS OF BRITISH THEATRE🚨 New research into the gender balance of composers, lyricists and playwrights in UK theatre has found there remains a large discrepancy in the representation of writers credited for main stage productions in 2022

Thrilled to share the #CFP for the #TragedyQueered conference (6-7 July 2023) at @UniofReading! Join us in exploring receptions and uses of Greek and Roman tragedy in queer culture! Deadline 29-January. Please share across disciplines. Hope to see you all there! @UniRdg_Classics

Here we are. I had to be picky; at least five honourable mentions would have gone up a tier if the standard had been a little less competitive. For Pick of the fringe and Honourable mention, come this way. https://t.co/x8LMekiLY9

Maygan’s Reel reviews #antigone as part of the @edfringe @theSpaceUK @MusicalAntigone ⭐️⭐️⭐️ #Theatre #EdinburghFringe2022

Antigone, the musical @MusicalAntigone from Hard Luck Theatre. Starts off as a faithful retelling, then there's a rather cheesy change to the plot. So cheese away for all it's worth.

Review: Antigone: The Musical ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ 'What’s undeniable about this show is how much fun it is. A highly entertaining hour that still has enough substance that it feels like far more than just a fluff piece, or a send-up' https://t.co/PB2VzX8JK6

⭐To all the ARTISTS, AUDIENCES and VENUE STAFF who joined us this year and made the 2022 Edinburgh Fringe so INCREDIBLE⭐ Thank you... and we hope to see you again in 2023!

That's a wrap! This is all you. The companies, the crew, the flyering, the late nights, the pints, the sold-out theatres and the tip-top resilience. The laughs, coffees, warm-ups, reviews, star ratings. Theatre. Can you spot yourself...? #theSpaceUK #edfringe

@MusicalAntigone Saw the show tonight. Loved it so much!! Brilliant retelling, funny, sad, uniting, excellent acting, singing and passion from the cast and first-class musicians. My 15 yo, classics-obsessed daughter adored it too & I got all the creds for booking it. 10/10 ❤️

I can’t believe we’ve finished!!! It’s been crazy, exhausting, but most of all an unbelievable amount of fun!!! 🎉⭐️❤️
