Read if you like: modern British theatre; the case for publicly funding the arts; gossip; David Hare; being on the cusp of great change; Alan Bennett; absent friends, and those who are here now
***
My go-to re-read for when my brain can't do new or complex things. Feel very Seen by Eyre and the ways in which his work ethic seems rooted in a certain anxiety and imposter syndrome (as opposed to say, Peter Hall). I think about the way he writes about his family, how he loves them but they remain a little unreachable to him, more and more every time. Makes me realise I need to read more plays, see more theatre, and be a better, more attentive friend
