A huge thank you to those who have donated to my new company's crowdfunder.

We are still quite a way from reaching our hoped target so if you are able or willing to support our endeavours I would be so grateful.

We are making some really cool and unique stuff and every contribution helps.

😂 not sure you need convincing but I’m excited to know what you think of my arguments.

But if you have something to spare. If you think musical theatre in the UK is important and occasionally undervalued. If you have enjoyed the work I have done in and for the form before. If you want to see shows developed that frankly no one else is developing. Then I would be hugely grateful.

Asking for help is always slightly embarrassing. And I know everyone is stretched at the moment so please don’t worry if you read this and think: no thank you I don’t want to do that.

Adam Lenson @adamlenson.bsky.social · Aug 5

So if you felt able to contribute to our crowdfunder I would be so grateful. Even a small contribution will help us get to our target.

Adam Lenson @adamlenson.bsky.social · Aug 5

Since my diagnosis a lot of people have asked how they can help at this difficult time. And my answer is: by supporting my desire to work and giving me something to look forward to.

Adam Lenson @adamlenson.bsky.social · Aug 5

In order to kick things off in the best way possible we are trying to raise some money. To give us some runway, allow us the ability to commission some writers, to bolster our education offer, and to ensure our first show is as well made and well shared as possible.

Though only just beginning, we have been commissioned by the prestigious New Diorama Theatre (originating home of Operation Mincemeat) to make a new show there later this year. We also have a number of other exciting projects in development.

Timelapse (@timelapsethtr) draws together a lot of my specialisms and interests: science, technology, musical theatre. It looks to give me space to make innovative, thought provoking work that can really push the boundaries of the form.

As you may or may not know my cancer came back in 2023. And it has been a challenging time both physically and mentally. But I’m trying my best to keep pushing on and to try and turn some of the lemons into lemonade. One of the key things I’ve been doing is founding a theatre company.

Adam Lenson @adamlenson.bsky.social · Aug 5

Hey. It’s weird to post on here asking for a favour. But I need a favour. So if you like me or like theatre or both, then have a read of this thread.

Adam Lenson @adamlenson.bsky.social · Jul 24

New draft. And a whole new song!

Happy Birthday!

London Road is still one of the most extraordinary shows ever made and the fact it’s back onstage is so special. You have just over a week to catch it @nationaltheatre.org.uk so do whatever you can to get there.

Why can’t it always be the summer when I was 15 when everyone is just home and wants to play video games?

Adam Lenson @adamlenson.bsky.social · Jun 1

Do I have friends who want to play Nightrein on PS5? I am feeling fomo.

Adam keeps it quiet because he’s mostly a director but he’s really great at sound design and composition for plays! Hire him for all your fringe needs!

Adam Lenson @adamlenson.bsky.social · May 31

Does anyone need an EdFringe Sound Designer?

I have time in June/July and will be up in Edinburgh for week zero. Amongst other things I designed the sound for last year’s Fringe First winning ‘Revenge: After the Levoyah’

Adam Lenson @adamlenson.bsky.social · May 31

I have found that the reduced physical demands of designing sound for plays is a good way to balance symptoms from my ongoing treatment.
