Calendar Girls
Tim FirthI’m always on about these nights! Look at the line ups! I was at 5 or 6 of these. Very unlikely spot for alt comedy back then. Hosted by Tim Firth who went on to write Calendar Girls. Pretty sure we also saw John Thomson there, Malcolm Hardee… https://t.co/wd0sj0jQ6l

Bronagh
L. a. CaseyMy friend in NI @BeebsyMcA tweets her 1981 teenage diary as @NrnIrnGirl1981. A lovely mix of innocence, boys and pop charts with a chilling backdrop of The Troubles. It’s changed her life. The @MattMcGinnMusic song it inspired is stunning. https://t.co/ZTaWJmEGan Go, Bronagh! https://t.co/iFqSaRHbeN

Stephen SondheimAh, sad news, a true great. This is a very good article on the craft of his #songwriting.
