Anyone planning to stream #TheNewTomorrow from home today? 🙋 Here are some tips on how to get the full Young Vic experience... 🏠 [THREAD]
Treat yourself to some home-made ice-cold tap water infused with mint leaves!

Water🥤 + Mint🌿 = Deliciousness😋

It has actually been described as 'the poshest water I've ever had'. True story.

#PoshestWaterIveEverHad
Did you know that our auditorium is built uniquely for every single show that we stage? No seating plan is ever the same!

So you can reconfigure your lounge furniture as if it were the YV auditorium. Bonus points if you leave 1 metre in between seats!

#SocialDistancing #Safety
Be your own Front of House manager and flick your room lights on and off at the Beginners call to let stragglers know we are about to start💡

[PS: did you know that the Beginners call actually happens 5 mins before the show starts? So today it will be at 3.55PM]
Put a mirror on your ceiling, by the main door 🪞

Check yourself out 😎

Looking good? Take a selfie!🤳
And don't forget your Young Vic Front of House usher starter pack!
Is someone late for the show? Ask them to wait in the kitchen until a suitable time⌚️
We want to hear from you! How will you be recreating the Young Vic experience from home? 💭🏠

It's October 3rd! 📅

We're ready to welcome back our first audience in SEVEN MONTHS! How excited are we?

THE LIMIT DOES NOT EXIST

#MeanGirlsDay
We would have liked some better weather, in fact, there is a 30% chance that it's already raining ☔️

#MeanGirlsDay #TheNewTomorrow
But the storm isn't going to stop us because we've really missed having audiences in our building...

Welcoming you back IS SO FETCH!
