What I am about to say could be considered so evil to some but like... the fact of the matter is that you need to be a certain level of thoughtful and intelligent to understand TTPD and it is very evident that the people who are very vocal about it being "bad" just... aren't that thoughtful or intelligent. And that's okay! But maybe don't say something is bad if you just don't personally want to take more than 2 seconds to understand a piece of art.

Hi can you give tips into organization for uni? I’ve been struggling a lot with catching up with my readings and everything

hey. when i was at uni i used to time-block my hours and allot specific chunks of time for each reading that i had to do and tried my best to stick to my outline. i used to do this on sundays and would just plot out my entire study schedule for the week. i didn't really do anything special, just lots of self discipline. planning in advance will save you a lot of stress during exam week

hi, what do you consider must reads in theatre/performance theory?

I took special interest in feminist theatre when I was at uni so I’d say anything by Elaine Aston is a good start if you want to study performance theory. Though preferably Restaging Feminisms and A Good Night Out for the Girls

Is there a specific branch of performance theory you’re interested in? Generally when you say theatre/performance theory there’s lots of subcategories and it can be very vague, let me know if there are specific topics you have in mind (i.e. semiotics, feminist, contemporary, materialism, postcolonial theatre, etc.)

do you have recommendations for the literary fiction subgenre that is "young woman feels lonely and lost in a big city while handling professional and personal lives" kind of like kitchen, milk fed, you made a fool of death with your beauty, etc?

Hi! This is a somewhat mixed bag of a list. I do watch/read a lot about loneliness and city living but it’s not necessarily fiction. But here are a few things that have been important to me:

The Lonely City by Olivia Laing: part memoir, part cultural criticism about loneliness, urban isolation and how artists in New York have built their art out of their experience. It’s one of my favourite books ever.

Frances Ha, dir. Noah Baumbach: about Frances, living in New York, very broke, and her relationship with her best friend. I love that it gives to a friendship the kind of premium normally reserved for romance.

Feminist City by Leslie Kern: it’s a feminist critique of urban planning and cityspaces, in terms of how inequalities of access are at times written into the urban form itself

Why Loiter by Shilpa Phadke: about how different classes of women in Mumbai claim and negotiate public spaces for work and leisure and so on
