I have never felt myself particularly affected by gendered language. When I see words like "man" or "he" or "guy," I do a small amount of mental acrobatics to change it to a word that fits for me, and that has always felt okay to me. 1/
My best guess at this point is Mary Stewart. But I'm going to be up all night trying to date my first reading of The Crystal Cave and thinking about who I'm forgetting.
Well, I think I can safely say that #theatreWithNoAudience#noNoiseButSilence was a lot of fun but also very tiring! I'm going to go have a nap now. Thanks everybody, and thanks so much for your support during the show (I felt it!!!), & for "buying tickets!"
