Twitaceous Era 31: "Too Apocalyptic"

This week on my Twitter feed I take a break from sitting in a dark room watching a play, to sit in a dark room watching a film.

I'm at the ballet tonight BECAUSE CULTURE. Lithe, partially-clad culture.

So... did they just decapitate a littlun, or was a pig meant have just turned up because of reasons? #intervaltweets

Finally off to see Pride. You've probably all built it up too much so if I hate it I'll blame you.

Twitaceous era 29: A low tolerance for acrobats

This week on my Twitter feed I'm terrorised by corporate fun and a public speaker who shouldn't.

Today I'll be livetweeting my firm's mandatory "fun" day at the O2. Because if I have to suffer so do you.

Well someone was singing "Don't Stop Believing" before we even entered the venue, so he's not wrong.

We have flashing wristbands. Yay! Accountancy!

Twitaceous Era 22: Electric Boogaloo

This week on my Twitter feed: Strallens, sequels and Scissor Sisters.

Caved and got a standing ticket to see Celia Imrie do cabaret next week, because of course I did.

Why yes, I *have* continued to amuse myself since last night by thinking of new Strallen names.It's hard to come up with an implausible one.

Twitaceous Era 21: Guardian-Readers of the Galaxy

This week on my Twitter feed, the Commonwealth Games continue to be mainly exist for the purposes of innuendo.

Twitaceous Era 5: Meat coma

This week on my Twitter feed, I'm at the Young Vic a lot so I'm tripping over hot actors everywhere I turn.

Fecal Attraction's changed its poster image to just the bunny. NOW WHERE COULD THEY HAVE GOT THAT IDEA FROM? http://partially-obstructed-view.blogspot.com/2014/03/theatre-review-fatal-attraction.html

Twitaceous Era 4: Scottish king shag list

This week on my Twitter feed, more dark mutterings about crashing theatre websites, because we all know that's what gets the followers flooding in.

This church's "DEATH COULD NOT HOLD HIM IN HIS GRAVE!!!" poster is making me think less "Easter," more "vampire apocalypse."

Been watching Bates Motel. So far the maddest thing is there's a girl called Bradley, and NOBODY thinks that's weird.

Dick Twittington 51: Hot desking

This week on my Twitter feed is dominated by my libido, which I'm sure is a big change etc etc.

Sleb Spot: Martha Plimpton on The Cut.

This fire alarm is all very well as long as it's cutting into my work time and doesn't steal my lunch break #priorities

Dick Twittington 48: Your Mum

This week on my Twitter feed there's a Tube strike, some gubbins about theatre and TV, and gratuitous Robert Lonsdale nipples, because that's the sort of thing I do to pass the time.

I'm worried that my journey into work this morning was relatively straightforward, & I'm being softened up for Hull on Earth on the way back

Yay Eve Best confirmed! I mean, even Kathryn Hunter couldn't make Antony & Cleopatra bearable to me, but better with Eve Best than without.

That's weird, I was only wondering the other day when Pig! No Pig! would resurface http://shar.es/QGdpH

Dick Twittington 8: She owes her career to The Fizz

This week on my Twitter feed, Jay Aston from Bucks Fizz auditions for The Voice and Twitter erupts in Rock Profile jokes. As is only correct.

Saying a vaguely sexual word in front of a cute boy isn't that good a flirt when the word's "syphilis." Basically, I'm bad at flirting.

Spellcheck want to change "anaemic" to "iceman." I like the X-Men too but that's silly.

"This is a two-sets-of-marigolds problem."

If it's February it must be time for new Being Human, although only for the next six weeks this time. Did the show have its budget cut, and decide to cut back to six episodes again instead of stinting on quality for eight? I've always done Being Human blog posts in bullet points, don't ask me why.

"The Trinity" by Toby Whithouse, directed by Philip John. Spoilers under the cut.
