On Monday we attend Imagination Unleashed a celebration of where Tech and Creativity collide. Highlight, a talk from Sam Peak, director of #GrandTheftHamlet - hilarious, poignant and innovative. Totally inspiring! #ScreenCornwall @falmouthuniversity.bsky.social @cornwallcouncil.bsky.social

It can sometimes feel like we are in a time of churn, the landscape of funding and the arts, still up in the air after over a decade of under investment in the sector - But it makes such a difference having a local MP who really gets culture and is making it a priority. #arts #culture #theatre

Our pilot International Theatre Festival, created real connections & new work through month long residencies with Cornish & international artists. Ukrainians’ Hooligan Art Community & Pearl Exchange’s piece, based on lived experiences, explored hooliganism, masculinity & community. #theatre #art

My grandad is 94 and still lives way up on Penwith Moors. A a child it was a land full of stories, maids turned to stone & miners tunnelling deep under ground & even one about Jesus visiting Dong Dong! 😂 Boskednan Stone Circle is still one of my favourite spots for a pasty. #standingstonesunday

After our own international festival in September, I visited Sala Beckett in Barcelona. Much of their approach to creating a modern theatre and residency space in a heritage building has inspired our plans for The Ladder. #theatre #residencies #culture

In 2015 we stumbled across an old ambulance depot in Tottenham Hale. over the next 5 years we would turn it into a space for us to experiment, our first show an audio adventure saw audience members shot out of the warehouse in coffins down a canal we built in the car park! #theatre #music #myths

Spent today with Felix at Hall for Cornwall, sharing our learnings from the past 15 years. It made me grateful for a shared adventure that’s seen us produce dozens of plays in crazy spaces, cycle the length of the USA, bus to Singapore and much much more. #theatre #travel #cornwall #adventures

Growing up in Penwith the far SW of Cornwall, shaped much of my work today. The beginning & end of the line, first & last, where giants’ castles float in the bay, millennia old stone circles still dance on the moors & butt up against a dirty old town, poverty & affluence. #cornwall #penwith

Shakespeare has been at the heart of RIFT’s work - www.riftexcursions.com From MSND in the basements of Ally Pally, to Shakespeare in Shoreditch we push formal examination. But my favourite was Macbeth, over night in a tower block in 2014! #shakespearesunday #theatre #brutalism #immersive

Our building was gifted to the people by John Passmore Edwards in 1894. A Victorian philanthropist can always be a bit of a can of worms… but not our John! An advocate of education for all, an abolitionist who turned down a knighthood & gave away 90% of his wealth to build #libraries.

We believe, now more than ever, we need to take time to listen to one another, hear each others stories and share our own journies. We are stronger as a community than the individuals that seek to divide us. Follow us on this journey and come and say hi, wherever you a from. #theatre #stories

We aren’t finished yet, but we’ve come a long way. We now house a beautiful nursery in half the building and this autumn The Ladder hosted Redruth International Festival of Theatre. Thousands of people poured back into the building to share amazing live performances. #festival #cornwall #theatre

Slowly, together, we’ve put it back on its feet. Our vision is to create a hub for the creation of performance and theatre, to share stories and experiences. #theatre #community #heritage #restoration

It was in a terrible condition when we found it. Ceilings on the floor, water running down the walls. But slowly over the last three years with a lot of help from friends and support from Historic England, AHF, Heritage Fund and many more we’ve stopped the rot! #community #heritage #arts

When we discovered the Passmore Edwards library in Redruth it was semi-derelict, at risk of demolition or loss to the community it had served for 125 years. Now our we hold it in trust, have renovated 75% of the building & are transforming it into a cultural hub The Ladder. #heritage #culture
