Today from 4pm on @resonancefm, @mcarthur.tim @nathanmatthews chat to @tannytruman from @makeamessmusical - A Totally Unauthorised Love Letter to Nigella Lawson at @upstairsatthegatehouse! When Anna’s estranged mother dies, she skips sitting shiva and immerses herself in NIGELLA LAWSON’s seminal cookbook How To Eat, somehow summoning an imagined Nigella as her guide. Folding together heartache and humour, Anna rediscovers the joys of living, learning, and - most importantly - eating, one recipe at a time. HOW TO MAKE A MESS is a delicious celebration of feeding yourself in every sense, through the exploration of recipes and the stories they hold. With a score that blends classic Broadway warmth with quirky, contemporary storytelling, this freshly-baked new musical serves up a bittersweet helping of grief, joy, and the question of what we leave behind.

Today from 4pm on @resonancefm, @mcarthur.tim @nathanmatthews chat to Chris Thompson about Desire Under The L Train! Following a sell-out residency Off-Broadway, award-winning playwright and screenwriter Chris Thompson brings his outrageously funny and haunting solo show to @omnibustheatre – for 3 nights only.  With his ten-year relationship at an end and his career in freefall, British playwright Chris Thompson flees to New York City and dives headfirst into a no-limits odyssey of sexual liberation. That was the plan. As desire spirals into something darker and more compulsive, he is forced to confront not just what he wants – but why he keeps wanting it. It’s a journey that propels him into the shadowy corners of New York, past and present. As he searches for connection in cruising grounds, art galleries and dive bars, Chris is haunted by the artists of New York who came before him and the ghost of every gay man in whose footsteps he walks. Desire Under the L Train is a moving and laugh-out-loud reckoning with self-deception, collective memory and the limitations of our own desires.  Laying himself bare with striking vulnerability, Chris Thompson’s writing and performance have left audiences entertained, deeply affected and – in their own words — “seen, adored and celebrated.” “Don’t miss this extraordinary exploration of queer desire and connection.” — The Queer Guru Desire Under the L Train is based on Chris Thompson’s award-winning, international hit podcast Two Foreskins Walk Into a Bar.
