Playwriting note 22: a new character entering should be like someone stepping in to a dingy - everyone in the dingy has to reposition themselves to find a new balance or they’ll capsize. The action of the scene is the negotiation of that repositioning. Same for an exit.

Can someone explain to me the practice of opera using manipulated stock photos of random people to advertise operas? I honestly don’t get it. Imagine seeing a poster for an upcoming film starring ______ and the image is some entirely random shutterstock model? 🤔

I will take any opportunity to bring up Covid vaccination in clinical consults and general conversation and in the last few weeks, I’ve spoken to a lot of people who are vaccine hesitant. These are some of the common fears people have, and these are my responses 🧵

final proof that quarantine has driven me over the edge: the idea has come to me, unbidden, of a Great British Baking Show composing spinoff. “Composers, the judges would love you to write three…buttery…CHACONNES.”

It’s been a long 5 weeks under lockdown for many Victorians and there’s still a long way to go. During this time #abc730 captured images that show how much life in Melb & parts of Vic changed. George Stirling, @AustBoysChoir, sings Meet Me In The Middle Of The Air @Chris_Gillett_
