On This Day: 25th April

For the last two year, Before The Lockdown, I've found some theatrical entertainment to amuse and entertain me ...

in 2018

Local theatre company Black Dog Productions put on Orphan at the Mission Theatre in Bath.
A dark and bloody exploration of the nature of friendship (real & obsessive) and guilt (hidden & realised) under the violence and oppression implicit (& explicit) in all cults.
It was horrifyingly engaging as the disturbing story of a boy known only as 'Orphan' is revealed to us, and the means by which he seeks justice against those who were knowingly, or not, complicit.

in 2019

One of the great things about living close to a visionary and adventurous theatre such as the Bristol Old Vic is that it actively engages and promotes creativity throughout the communities it serves.
The BOV has a number of outreach programmes that encourage and help various groups of people develop both their ideas and skills. One such programme is Bristol Ferment which is a programme enabling collaboration and providing access to resources to local theatre-makers culminating in two short festivals each year.
Recently this programme was extended to support another of the BOV's programmes, the BOV Young Company.
So, on this day in 2019, which I think was the second year of Young Ferment, I saw four short works: The Iron Curtain, Unnatural, Let Them Eat Chaos, and Has it Started Yet?
Each had something interesting to say about issues such as state power, sexuality, conformity, identity and the like but, for me the most interesting, and important, thing is seeing bold new ideas being expressed in exciting ways by a group new, and young, theatre makers. It's reassuring to know that there are new ideas waiting in the wings, ready to take to the main stage.

The New Blog

Hi, while my YouTube channel is still quite small (less than 1,000 subscribers, etc.) I can't use the built-in YouTube features to actively engage with you, the lovely folk who watch, comment, and subscribe to my channel. As I am already sort of familiar with Blogger I though I would open up a new space here specifically linked to the YouTube channel but one that allows me to share stuff other than my game videos and can also be somewhere for all of us to exchange thoughts and ideas about the channel or anything else that pops into our minds. So ... if you're not into using Twitter or Instagram to communicate, or find them too limiting, or are strange enough to want to read more of my long-winded thoughts and observations then ... WELCOME! Now, if you're new to my channel or maybe just curious about who the heck I am please check out the links in the title bar which might give you some insight ... or might not. ;) You can use the Subscribe option in the title bar...

Am I A 'YouTuber' Now?

So, this was a post I wrote back in October 2020 but, for some reason never quite finished or published it...🤔 The situation has escalated somewhat since then, in August 2023 my little hobby channel had acquired an astonishing 2,500 subscribers!  I wonder if my musings of three years ago are still valid (I have made some minor edits to the original draft for spelling and grammar) ... Well, it was just a little hobby, to share the fun I was having with my Sims 3 stories and now I've reached the first big 'proper YouTuber' milestone ... 1,000 subscribers!! In December 2015 I uploaded my first ever gameplay video, "Slade Dynasty Chronicles Intro : Sims 3 Lets Play" As ropey as it was, I think I was actually using just the microphone on my cheap-as-chips headset, I actually enjoyed the process of creating videos and the very kind Sims 3 community were encouraging in their support. I experimented with other games and types of video, trying to work out what I most...
