Did you know in the 19th century it was considered improper for women to play the violin? Due to its similarity to the female shape it was considered *whispers* masturbatory. Not to mention the vigorous arm movements and facial expressions…. badlilies.uk/lisa-coates

Join us for a unique opera! Funded by @ahrcpress for the #FromNoahToNow project @UniOfHull, this *free* event aims to raise awareness about flooding.

An amazing start this week to our project #NoahToNow. All 3 schools loved their sessions and really got into the spirit. @pilgrimacad @lacebyacresy5 @DeltaWybersWood thanks for having us! @StewartJMottram @Edward_Brookes_ @grazykoala @HullMusicHub @NELMusicHub
Had a lovely return to LaCuna at the weekend with @grazykoala. Such a lovely venue and audience. They’d even framed our autographs from last time!
Thrilled to be producing and directing Britten’s opera Noyes as part of this project. Performances in March 25 and we start going into schools next week to introduce them to the project #FromNoahToNow
We’re thrilled to launch From Noah to Now – a ground-breaking @ahrcpress project @UniOfHull exploring the role of opera, literature and the arts in communicating flood risks in coastal and estuary communities. Follow to find out more! #FromNoahToNow #ArtsEducation #OperaInSchools
Looking forward to returning to Lacuna on Saturday with @grazykoala

My bed buddy. Taking liberties she is. Stole my pillow. She’s now snoring. But goodness me she’s adorable

Which gives us an excuse to post this excerpt from a biography of the great man, Dickens stocking up on stockings...
🧵 My TV watching currently seems to switch between the Olympics and the riots. Seeing people making the absolute best of themselves and hugging and supporting their competitors of different races and cultures is incredible & inspiring (1/4)
But then seeing people condemn this behaviour in various online community groups and come out to help clean up; THAT’S the city I love. You don’t have to be the absolute best but being the best person you can be and treating your fellow humans, and our world (3/4)
