This is so much more beautiful than I could ever have hoped
Amy Poehler has finally released a trailer for Philly Justice — the fake TV show Poehler, Adam Scott, Rashida Jones, and Kathryn Hahn created for fun while filming Parks & Rec! IYKYK

My play has made it on to the longlist for the @theatre503 International Playwriting Award, which has slightly brightened an otherwise pretty grim day. theatre503.com/503-twp/award…

I hardly ever watch Netflix anymore and the cancellation of #Kaos reminds me why. They are just so horribly out of touch with what's actually good these days.

Coming out of social media hiatus to say that #DeadBoyDetectives is the fun case-of-the-week supernatural thriller of your dreams and if there's any justice it should run 20-episode seasons for the next 5 years.

Just in case you weren't aware, there's a very funny murder mystery show on Prime Video right now in which women (mainly lesbians) both solve AND commit crimes. Watch #Deadloch. Watch it now.

I haven't seen enough people talking about #ThePower on Prime Video. Great show, and a bang-on adaptation of Naomi Alderman's excellent book. Watch it!

Loved #HappyMeal at @OxfordPlayhouse by Tabby Lamb. A wonderful tale of the journey towards loving yourself, both online and IRL, with funny and heartfelt performances. It's on for the rest of the week, highly recommend.

Absolutely fuming that #PaperGirls was cancelled, it was a great show.

What with this and #PaperGirls (also BRILLIANT), it's a great time to be a fan of comics beyond the mainstream superhero stuff.

Not me crying at a three minute scene...
"It's time." Death comes to claim an elderly violist in this moving, exclusive scene from the sixth episode of Netflix's The Sandman, debuting on Netflix on August 5. @Netflix_Sandman Check out our exclusive cover story here: bit.ly/3vbj4Rf

If anyone I know on here is at #Glastonbury2022, then this map of the food stalls is worth checking out, especially if you're trying to find a place that meets any dietary restrictions you may have.
With over 100 food stalls already on the map for Glastonbury Festival 2022, festifood.eu is ready to help you find what you want to eat. More stalls added every day.
#Barry season three was a completely flawless season of TV. Extraordinary writing, directing and performing across the board. Bold, shocking, hilarious, anxiety-inducing and even silly at times. What a show.

I don't care how vast the multiverse is, there is no world in which two kids saying 'listen to this mum, you'll like it' isn't followed by them farting. #DoctorStrange

This is directed by the brilliant @jessbarton28, so it definitely worth watching, theatre fans!

Just finished the first draft of my first play since having a baby. At this point I think it's probably a very bad draft. But I did it!
