In the dying hours of November 2023 I'm here to tell you that 'A Jacobean Company and Its Playhouse: the Queen's Servants at the Red Bull Theatre c. 1605-1619' was ten years old this month! Here is the link to the online version: cambridge.org/core/books/jac… Hurrah!😃

Here in #Galicia having a good time. My one and only beer during a free concert in #Santiago #Spain. Preceded by a brass band session round the corner, this was accompanied by some great #Jazz, played underneath a beautiful bas relief. Well why not? #pilgrims #beer #Iamcareful

For women, singing is forbidden in Iran. This woman is bravely singing in one of Esfahan’s most historical mosques. When the security agent tried to stop her, she resisted and continued. Brave Iranian women like her will some day bring down this most anti-woman regime.

Oscar-winning actress and former MP Glenda Jackson has died at the age of 87. In 1972, she was quizzed on whether acting and politics should mix, while in the A Chance To Meet... hot seat.

On Friday - a complete fluke - I spent a wonderful day at Westminster Abbey @wabbey on the 70th anniversary of Queen Elizabeth II's Coronation. At Evensong I was by the choir hearing beautiful Byrd and Tallis, and saw upclose where the recent Coronation took place. #SUBLIME

A superstitious star and some suspicious spectres, what could possibly go wrong? See what happened when @kylieminogue paid a visit to the BBC Ghosts at Button House this #RedNoseDay.

How could you make those people so boring, @NationalTheatre? I'm afraid I fell fast asleep! It's not true It's sold out, there was an empty seat next to me specially there for snoozing purposes. What a load of rubbish. #TheMotiveAndTheCue

What better location for @elbfrankland’s explosively inventive Galatea, which cracks open Lyly’s play and rebuilds it in 2023. Bravo! @brightfest @marlboroughprod @andykesson

Saw an amazing 'Cinderella' danced @RoyalOperaHouse a couple of weeks ago. When are they going to unpick these 'ER' threads and stitch in 'CR' instead? I've created a transcription of BL MS Lansdowne 285's form of Coronation for lemon-shakespeare.com Happy Weekend! More to come
