I'm off to the party now! Glad to meet up there as well. I'll probably be at the drag stage :-).

It is short notice, but would anyone else at #ESEB2022 like to go to the pride party this evening? If you want to join me, I am walking there, departing from Wenceslas statue at 1900.

I can't get over just how awesome the #wpsg2022 workshop is. Outstanding faculty, amazing organizers, and a group of fiercely dedicated participants. The only bad thing is having to leave 😭😭😭. Thanks so much for letting me be a part of it!!!.

I was also disappointed. The majority of the audience took their masks off once inside. Other venues promote mask wearing. A little reminder at the entrance and before the show starts would have made a huge difference.
Just back from @SohoThatcher; show was excellent, but extremely dismayed at indifference of @FollowTheCow towards #covid19. Despite signage saying masks *must* be worn indoors, dozens of audience didn't and ushers made no attempt to enforce, nor any announcement before show.
