For predictable reasons, I'd love to hear from you if you include any of my work in your course reading lists. Also, if you are a journal editor and know that a review of Punchdrunk on the Classics is coming before 30 June I'd also be grateful to hear it! Please DM me :)

No other classic text has left such a mark on how we tell stories, create theatre, and structure film. But what does it actually say?

12 years ago in Eleusis. Can't quite believe it has been that long since I've been back to Greece.

Punchdrunk on the Classics

This book draws attention to Punchdrunk’s use of ancient Greek literature in their creation of immersive theatre, and highlights the overlooked significance of antiquity in their practice.

It’s a dark day for research in Aotearoa New Zealand and the ramifications for the country are huge. Minister Judith Collins has just announced our blue-skies funder will no longer fund humanities & social science research and that 50% of what is funded must have economic benefit.

Friends, I have a colleague trying to access a recording of Headlong's 1984. Has anyone come across one before? TIA!

Emma Cole @emmacole.bsky.social · 19/11/2024

Friends, can you think of an edited collection with an effective, snappy epilogue/afterword written by the editor (as opposed to written by an extra contributor)? I'm after some stellar examples, ideally #theatresky or #classicssky. Ta!

My main gripe here is that my feed gets dominated by individuals in a way that was filtered out due to the algorithm in prior lands. Any tips? It seams threads don’t get filed underneath the first tweet but in live tweeting I see every one separately…

Made the excuse that I was just going to the toilet and would be right back during the kids’ bedtime to try and give them a chance to fall asleep by themselves. Took myself to the couch to scroll socials only to be sprung by the 4yo who asked why I lied 😟

One final Brisbane/QLD question from this newbie - when does swooping season end?! There are miners enacting a reign of terror on the corner of my street and I start each day terrified of the cycle into work (often with my kids on the back of the bike too!) 😳😱

Emma Cole @emmacole.bsky.social · 17/10/2023

Another QLD question for you all - do I need to go to a specialist skin cancer clinic for an annual skin check or do GPs do this? Figure I need to get on top of these now I live in Brisbane 😬

Emma Cole @emmacole.bsky.social · 16/10/2023

Do houses in QLD and/or houses with floorboards produce more dust, or did I just live in invisible filth in my carpeted UK home? Feels like I’m constantly hoovering here 😩

Emma Cole @emmacole.bsky.social · 23/09/2023

Ah, that small window of time where I have a social media account that my mum hasn’t yet discovered and followed me on 😆. 35 and with nothing to share that she doesn’t know/would care about but it still feels 🔥

Shoutout to all the other caters who started their morning with a book week meltdown. Was I unreasonable for refusing to do face-paint cat ears on the pre-schooler’s forehead when she was already wearing a cat-ear headband? You be the judge.
