  2. 🎭 Happy #WorldTheatreDay! This 1977 #NYCsubway poster from the #NYTMCollection shows a dozen actors from concurrent Broadway shows posing together in costume. The group is photographed on an R44 subway car for the "MTA gets you there" campaign. It's a star-studded line up. Can you name the actors?

  3. Happy World Théâtre Day! I’m blessed to live in Edmonton, a city with such a brilliant and inclusive theatre scene. To honour the day, I rummaged through my archives, to share this documentary we made about the resilient, remarkable Edmonton Fringe Festival! youtu.be/UnX77xl5skw?si=pfsWY6 #yeg #Edmonton #WorldTheatreDay #EdmontonFringeFestival #cdnpoli

  12. “The general assumption in the past has tended to be that an overview of Scottish drama would not take very long. Between Sir David Lyndsay & James Bridie, what was there of any lasting importance?”

    Edwin Morgan, “Scottish Drama: an overview” (1999)

  15. Happy #WorldTheatreDay , folks.

    Theatre is a medium which is bespoke. Live performance in front of a live audience. A synergy between both points, the one driving the energy of the other.

    It’s also one of the longest surviving forms of art we have. It’s irreplaceable and deserves your support.

  16. Since today is #WorldTheatreDay – you all know this already – but #Dionysos is the God of Theatre!

    #Theatre performances were held in his honour and probably evolved from the jokes made during the Dionysia's procession of phalloi 🎭

    What a privilege to work in this industry. Onwards and Upwards

  18. 🎭 Today, March 27, is #WorldTheatreDay! The Sá de Miranda Municipal Theatre, inaugurated in 1885 in #VianaDoCastelo, is a beautiful Italian-style theater with a trompe-l'œil ceiling and a curtain designed by Luigi Manini. A place full of history and culture! #Viana #Culture #Theatre #Portugal

  19. So thank you, to all the theatre artists - the playwrights, actors, directors, stage designers, costume makers, theatre technicians, dramaturges, stage managers, makeup artists, etc, etc. who bring shows to life, who transport us, and show us new worlds. Theatre has shaped my life, made me think new thoughts, feel new feelings, love new loves. Thank goodness. #WorldTheatreDay

  20. Just watched a local #highschool production of a play (in French) titled "J'ai pêté du théâtre."

    GPT when pronounced in #French sounds like "J'ai pêté" which means "I farted".

    So the the title of their play is "I farted theatre". (Or "GPT Theatre".)

    About a writer who uses #ChatGPT to write scenes for their play & the hilarious nonsense it creates.

    The teens have already nailed down the meta joke about this whole #AI situation & it slapped. 🤣

  22. Resilience, strength & invincibility — these are the words that describe the #Ukraine theater in times of war.

    On #WorldTheatreDay, we remember russia's war crimes, including against our culture, and honor the memory of those killed as a result of 🇷🇺's terror against 🇺🇦.
