Caretaker, Royal Court

Text of the day: “Don’t be silent about the racist murder of George Floyd.”

Favourite stage direction: “Suddenly the electrolux starts to hum.”

Facts of the day: Posh played to 100 per cent capacity at the Royal Court in 2010 and remains one of the highest-grossing shows ever to play in the theatre.

Last night, at the opening of Mike Bartlett’s new play at the Royal Court, there were plenty of opportunities for ribald jokes about the play’s title, Cock.
