#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.🤪

@shakespearectr, given our discussions about @PlayTheKnave and #digitaltheatre options for the COVID classroom, this Zoom Tempest production might be of interest!

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.

Know any teachers in Cape Town who want to liven up their teaching of Shakespeare? Or to teach other texts through dramatic performance? Play the Knave's director is in Cape Town for the next 6 months & can bring the game to local classrooms. No cost beyond your time! #edgames

Cool to see @PlayTheKnave get as shout-out in this Virginia newspaper article about Shakespeare's present & future. "Don't scoff" at the idea of videogames about Shakespeare, says the Richmond Times Dispatch. Right on!

Very interesting post responding to @GinaBloom5's #MLA19 presentation on @PlayTheKnave and glitches.

New post up on the Barnard DHC website! Inspired by @PlayTheKnave , I wrote about the MLA, the intersection of digital thought and pre-digital media, glitch humor and the grotesque. Check it out! https://t.co/aTTefu0mo1

Come hear about recent research on @PlayTheKnave at #MLA19. True knavers know the glitches are the best part of this game.

Theater producers/directors/playwrights: live motion-capture theater may not have to be out of your price range. We'll find out this week when we experiment with repurposing @PlaytheKnave at the Ground & Field Theatre Festival workshop: https://t.co/dC8maXlxgD via @alldenews
