@beatnikprof right? I’m getting the same. “This was such a strong application. The show sounded really good… but aaaahh, shame your name begins with L and we only commission artists whose first name begins in r-h-g, also we had stronger applications by artists who wrote their pitch in sanscrit and promised us pizza… but honestly your show sounds so good, sooo good we’re killing ourselves that we can’t have you…”

Honestly? How about some remotely useful feedback?

@riewarden @magicalmudge @mogster We are a theatre of sanctuary too! In fact I’m trying to see if I can bring my solo show to Nottingham 😃
@riewarden @magicalmudge @mogster Hello! We’re an ensemble of artists who’ve migrated to the UK from different countries. We produce plays in translation and devised pieces about sociopolitical issues. We love playing with theatricality, physical theatre and multimedia. We’re also very community focused and run free weekly classes for migrants and refugees in Tottenham. Every year we also devise shows with participants.

@notfunnyelle I find it too random tbh. One thing is to be fed adverts, another is to be showed first posts about stuff you care about. Here I can’t find anything. I’m forced to scroll forever. Also one of the best ways to find interesting people on other sites is to see who the accounts you like follow. Here you can’t see people’s followers unless they are on your server. Why? It’s bonkers
@PixelJones @notfunnyelle I totally agree with this.
@LMug @nedglasier @madewithstring The smell is a big thing… empty theatre during tech smell.
@magicalmudge @mogster hello! I can’t find anyone! 😂 I’m a Theatre maker, performer, AD of LegalAliens Theatre.
@adam_y The 2 aren’t comparable though. There’s a real ethical choice behind environmental habits. “Theatre Twitter” is an amorphous chamber that developed over time and actually means nothing for the world 😄 Musk is evil, so is Zuckerberg, remember when everyone was leaving WhatsApp? I downloaded Signal. Nobody switched. Then Telegram. Nobody there. Now once again we’re told to migrate platform, I did… But most people have reached exhaustion. Truth is we should all switch off our phones
@adam_y I only partially agree. Theatre Twitter had also allowed total outsiders to get a voice. I’ve been outside mainstream theatre all my life. Twitter allowed me to find like-minded artists who shared my views. That led to collaborations - always outside the mainstream - and feeling much less lonely, it gave a public voice to conversations I used to only have with myself. On Mastodon I can’t find anyone. I feel lonely again. So I keep returning to Twitter.
