Just watched a recording of Audra McDonald performing Rose's Turn at the Tony's last night and not at all embarrassed to say I broke into applause at the end - to the surprise of everyone sitting near me in this coffee shop.

"There is no place for arrogance in the arts, but neither is there room for doubt or a perpetual need for affirmation...The world doesn't have time for that. Believe in your worth and work with a will so that others will see it. That's how it is done; that's how it was always done." -Martha Graham

I do not want to see Keir Starmer or Labour UK anywhere near Pride in London ever again - bowing down to Transphobic bigots over a warped and biased ruling which architects of the Equality Act 2010 have already spoken out against… Labour has abandoned the LGBTQ+ community
Keir Starmer has clarified that the position of his government is TransphobicMelanie Field, one the civil servants who drafted the 2010 Equality Act has spoken out in the wake of the biased Supreme Court ruling

The Trans Rights demo yesterday was beautiful and hopeful. So many diverse people from all walks of life coming together - the word I kept thinking about was "community". You can spend billions buying sycophants. Or a cigar. But all the billions cannot buy community. And that's why we will win.

Ah, damn, the great William Finn has gone to the choir. I sang The Games I Play at my drama school showcase about 20 years ago and fell in love with his work then. I took Mark's All Male Thanksgiving to so many auditions. Another tremendous loss. playbill.com/article/tony...
