@lionheart_theatre_ This unflinching case study scrutinizes one of the most pertinent conversations of our time: women's safety. Using the exact words of the victim, the perpetrator and their families, this play guides you through the most controversial sexual assault case in America. Found guilty of three felonies of sexual assault, an elite college sportsman is sentenced to just six months and released after three. The judge's justification: a long-term sentence would have a 'severe impact' on the perpetrator's future. This verbatim play 'boldly delves into an examination of women's safety, rape culture and patriarchal double standards' Director #Pollyannaesse The play can be seen at #thepleasancecourtyard during the #edfringe (AllEdinburghTheatre.com). ![]()

‘ Today especially because it’s the Edinburgh Fringe re-emerging after 2-3 of just trauma and also to see the joy of the performing arts back on stages, streets and places- I guess for me it’s particularly poignant because the Edinburgh Fringe and The Edinburgh Festivals started after the 2nd World War. The original rational for the festivals was to salve for the people of Europe after the horrors of the 2nd World War. It feels today like we have come full circle and yet again, the arts are the thing that is the connecting space after a global pandemic and also Brexit and those things that have happened. I guess, as well, growing up in N. Ireland, the arts have always meant something more powerful to me than just an event or just entertainment; It was always the space for people to come together and have conversations that weren’t polarised, conversations where people had nuances and grey areas’ Shona McCarthy Edinburgh Festival Fringe Society ![]()

@lionesses The England women's national football team has been governed by the Football Association (FA) since 1993, having been previously administered by the Women's Football Association (WFA). England played its first international match in November 1972 against Scotland. Although most national football teams represent a sovereign state, England is permitted by FIFA statutes, as a member of the United Kingdom's Home Nations, to maintain its own national side that competes in all major tournaments, with the exception of the Women's Olympic Football Tournament![]()

in the hope of gathering #fingerprints from #pattismith![]()
& band. After circling the event, talking at the security gate, trying to pass messages through the layers of protection ( Which I totally understand 💚) I accepted that it wasn’t meant to be . I relaxed, and a band called #ferociousdog.uk came on the stage. The band generously signed calendars for all their supporters ( They have a huge following ) - I’m thrilled they also added their #fingerprints to sit alongside Michael and Emily Eavis ( music world ) and many more on this huge social art document #spottimespottime #artaunifyinglanguage #conservationmeanslife #alllife #sittingequally #workingtogether #transcendingdifference #refugeeschooselove #runningwithrefugees #fingerprintofunity #onespecies #one #workingtogether #acrossallindustries #we Ferocious Dog are a six-piece band who deal in a vibrant vein of Celtic-folk infused punk rock, comfortably slotting in between Billy Bragg and The Levellers. However, like The Levellers and New Model Army (also listed as an influence), Ferocious Dog have a broad spectrum of influences, tied together by the band’s left-leaning convictions and a shared desire to communicate through music.![]()
The band has headlined tours of the UK and Europe, festivals such as Bearded Theory, Alchemy, Deerstock, Farmer Phil's Festival, Splendour, Lowlands (Netherlands), Glastonbury Festival and Beautiful Days among many others. ![]()

For forty uninterrupted years, #robertmoses was the most powerful man in New York. Though never elected to office, he manipulated those who were through a mix of guile, charm and intimidation.![]()
Motivated at first by a determination to improve the lives of New York City’s workers, he created new parks, new bridges and 627 miles of expressway to connect the people to the great outdoors. But in the 1950s, groups of citizens at grass roots began to organize against his schemes and against the motor car, campaigning for a very different idea of what a city was and for what it should be.![]()

‘‘Born Free Forever’ is based on a true story of a loving couple and a sweet lion cub named Elsa. In 1956 a game warden was sent to deal with a dangerous lion in Kenya. After shooting the lion and his aggressive female, he is distressed to find they have left behind three tiny cubs. And so begins the extraordinary story of George Adamson, his wife Joy, and their mission to raise and return the lion cub called Elsa to the wild. They would go on to become two of the greatest champions for lions.’ ![]()

The story behind Choose Love is well-publicised - Josie Naughton ![]()
Lliana Bird, Dawn O'Porter, Dani Lawrence were horrified by the news stories of squalid conditions in the informal refugee camps in Calais, France. They set up a hashtag on social media, and after having raised £1,000, their fundraising rapidly grew to £56,000.![]()
Thousands of packages of aid started arriving every day — sleeping bags, tents, food. But when they got to Calais in August 2015, they were shocked to discover that there was no international charity coordinating efforts. So they got themselves a warehouse, recruited a network of volunteers on Facebook, and Help Calais was born: Choose Love’s first incarnation.![]()
Overnight, Choose Love say, they became the largest aid operation in northern France.

Ralph Fiennes leads as Robert Moses in this account of the controversial public official’s life and lasting legacy. Charm, manipulation, intimidation- this play explores how Moses used his power and status to face his challengers and change New York City forever.
When I started this artwork, SPOTtimespotTIME I was stood in #royalacademyofarts looking at The Rubens exhibition in 2015 . One fingerprint connected us all across time. Time, #theancestors and #legacy works as a whole and I knew in that moment, that a shift in our identity was occurring. We are all one species and uniquely individual. We share a home together and how we treat all life, is how we ultimately treat ourself. ![]()
Creating a collective artwork and trusting the organic creative process is all about trust and instinct, - just like the planet - the artwork had to reflect this. #conservationmeanslife ![]()

The hummingbird represents an ancient symbol of joy and happiness. Its colorful appearance brings good luck and positive energy to our lives.![]()
![]()
Wisdom – Since lyres are commonly associated with Apollo, the god of music and prophecy, they have become symbols of moderation and wisdom to ancient Greeks. This strong association between Apollo and lyres stems from various myths that demonstrate his love for music. After his encounter with Hermes, Apollo went on to delight Zeus, the god of sky and thunder, with tunes that he played with his golden lyre.![]()
Harmony – Lyres are also believed to symbolize cosmic harmony. Apollo always carried his lyre with him, and it’s not just because he had the talent for it. Like in the story of how Hermes offered a lyre as a peace offering to him, this instrument became a powerful instrument of heavenly peace and social order. In addition, it’s possible that the calming sounds it produces automatically remind people of peaceful times.![]()
Union of Cosmic Forces – The lyre is also believed to symbolize the peaceful union between various cosmic forces. Since it usually has seven strings, each string was believed to symbolize one of the seven planets in our galaxy. Eventually, Timotheus of Miletus, a Greek musician and poet, added more strings to make it twelve, each corresponding to a certain Zodiac sign.

‘I had no idea that when I agreed to join a friend on a short jog in 2014 that it would start a chain of events that would change my life.

By 2016, I was ready to try and run the London Marathon.Throughout the previous summer, I had been watching with horror as the media filled with pictures of children's bodies washed up on Greece beaches & , particularly, the now infamous image of 3 year old Aylan Kurdi. I knew it was an issue I could get behind.![]()
I spoke to a few friends in the Theatre world &, before long, my #marathon fundraising had spiralled into something much bigger. The Royal National Theatre donated the use of the #lytteltontheatre , 7 #playwrights in the UK wrote and donated material & 36 actors offered their services. #UNHCR made one piece, by Jenifer Toksvig, into this amazing film with Cate Blanchett, Peter Capaldi, Keira Knightley, Juliet Stevenson & others.![]()
On February 14th 2016, we staged 'Moving Stories' and raised over £32,000 for the #UN #refugee agency (UNHCR). In April, I ran in London & was bitten with the marathon bug.!’ #artaunifyinglanguage ![]()
