At our last #FSTMembers meeting we took a moment to open the floor (well, Zoom chat) for people to share what has given them hope during these hard times for us all. So on #LoveTheatreDay we want to share some of them with you. #LoveTheatreScotland

“Creativity is still there even if it can't always be fully expressed in every way!” #LoveTheatreDay

“Coming together to share and be honest about where we all are and give space to hear each other has been the most useful, most beautiful thing I’ve given time to over the last few months.” #LoveTheatreDay

“Seeing the deep resilience of the people in our sector. It would be so easy to give in to everything terrible that is going on in the world right now, but the creativity keeps on flowing, somehow...” #LoveTheatreDay

“Artists talking to each other across barriers of geography, form, experience.” #LoveTheatreDay

“I have met and connected with loads of new folk in Scotland which has offered a lovely sense of community.” #LoveTheatreScotland

“We all seem to be co-operating and talking to each other more than we did before” #LoveTheatreDay

“The people. The passion, commitment, care and willingness to talk openly and honestly about things that matter - even when they are hard.” #LoveTheatreScotland

“The generosity of artists in sharing their work, skills and expertise! Learning so much! We all need hope to keep us going for sure. Hope is hard to kill!” #LoveTheatreDay

This was just a selection of the messages left by just some of the FST Membership. 2020 has been hard on us all but we continue to be inspired by the thought, care, passion and creativity in our sector. Please share any messages of hope you have this #LoveTheatreDay
