I just sent a newsletter out to my lovely subscribers (not one of them? Remedy that quickly over here!) with some stuff I’ve been up to recently.

There’s big news (I got funding to write a show about science club kids and the first women astronaut trainees) and small news (one of the songs from that show is being performed at Leeds Conservatoire next week) and bizarre news (I am the voice of the Periodic Table on Alexa) and more.

You can read it here.

…about WOMEN and SPACE and DISMANTLING THE PATRIARCHY.

I’m workshopping it this week with some brilliant Musical Theatre students at Leeds Conservatoire. I’ll be joined by my fab arranger and co-composer Jenna Dyckhoff and ace MD Jess Douglas for a couple of days too – a powerhouse team.

When I have something to share I’ll pop it here, or take to my twitter @helenarney to get updates as we go along!

Happy New Podcast Series Day!

Finally, the second series of the podcast that fears no detail is out today with “FLUSH AND FORGET”, an episode about siphons, sewers and streams, with a song from me about how no-one really knows how to flush a toilet.

To listen, search for “Unnecessary Detail” wherever you get your podcasts and subscribe, or click here for all the episodes in Series 2 so far (and everything from Series 1)

We’ve also got a couple of live shows next week at London’s Bloomsbury Theatre, on Thursday 7th and Friday 8th April. If you’re back into attending live events, we’d love to see you there, though the Friday night is nearly sold out so you might need to be quick…

Tickets and line-ups are over here.
