Don't know how Twitter mucked up our thread (this platform is driving us nuts) so we'll try that again! Introducing the composer of #CupboardLove Madeleine Dring (1923-77) @cockpittheatre @teteateteopera
Twitter even mucked up the link to tickets! 🤦🏼♀️ so here it is again! thecockpit.org.uk/show/cupbo…

🌈 We’re thrilled to be among so many LGBTQ+ shows @teteateteopera!
One of them is Fierce Love, on 2 Sep. It vividly captures the vibrant nightlife, determined AIDS activism, and enduring queer love of 1990s London. @jimWarboy

The first London staging of #MadeleineDring's only opera.
A comedy murder 'whodunit' written in the early 50s & never performed until 1983.

Thank you @RobertHugill for this preview of @teteateteopera and in particularly for mentioning our production of Dring's 'Cupboard Love' - we were wondering who might have heard it in '83 and we'd love to hear from anyone else who did!

Imagine events such as the Coronation, the Queen's funeral and last night of the Proms having no professional singers. These events are integral in demonstrating how amazing the UK music scene is to the entire world. Disgraceful. change.org/p/stop-the-planne…

With the BBC's typically acute timing, tonight for #IWD2023 you can enjoy the BBC Singers, a day after the group were all fired. "The BBC Singers perform more music by women composers than any other group in the world." bbc.co.uk/programmes/m001jlq…

The petition calling for @E_N_O's funding to be reinstated has been signed over 77,000 times. The response to this campaign has been incredible but there's much more to do.
