Mistkaes happen
• 8.25.2010, in discussing that state of the city’s South Bank arts precinct, London Mayoral advisor Steve Norris commented in the media...
“the National Theatre should have a Compulsory Demolition Order”.
The theatre responds
The people respond
@DisAgg – And to think I’d thought about unfollowing @NationalTheatre for them being bland. Best. Tweet. Ever.
@johnfoley – Have to say I found that errant @NationalTheatre tweet to be refreshingly human.
@jmc_fire – To be honest, I thought the @nationaltheatre c-word tweet was less offensive than their selective tweeting of good feedback on their shows.
The theatre responds
Response@sarahmade – Oh the poor employee at the @NationalTheatre who got their accounts mixed up. Hack? Yeah right. #cringe
@andytfield – To be honest. The fact @NationalTheatre can’t admit that someone said that shows everything that’s wrong with that organisation.
@joannahc – Between @catbinlady ‘s tweets and @NationalTheatre pretending they got hacked, today is a rather amusing Twitter day.
