Day 95 - Helgard and Stefan Interviews (Rimini Protokoll), Aberystwyth Seafront

I caught them at the end of the day and we sat on the seafront by the bandstand discussing the locations that they had looked at over the last 48 hours and the different potentials for performance. Things will look very different when they return in January.

Audio Interview to follow shortly. (post to be updated)

Playtest pics

Thought I'd share some of the pics from the last playtest we did in Prestatyn. It was as fun/crazy/mad as it looks and if you want to be a part of it get in touch with us so we can let you know when and where the next playtests are happening. We'd love you to come and play!

It was amazing, The Beatles returned to Prestatyn in the middle of our playtest just as I had my camera out. Who'd have believed it?…

NTW at Hay Festival

This weekend I went to Hay Festival to spend my time with luminaries and wordsmiths so smart they made me feel like a sea monkey by comparison. I listened to all manner of people from environmentalists to politicians, some of which you can read about soon on this here blog, but I also caught up with National Theatre Wales who were doing a little session with Michael Billington from the Guardian (‘caught up with’ is actually a bit of an… Continue

Day 93 - Fish and Chips and Happy Birthday Clint - Along the Prom, Aberystwyth

Rimini Protokoll arrived in Aberystwyth for the first time today. At around 9:20pm. I waited for a while in the Shilam, drinking odd tasting Tetleys and reading the Independant. Apparently Clint Eastwood is 80 today (unless of course it was an old copy of the paper). We ended up going for fish and chips before heading to Rummers for a drink. Up early tomorrow. I'm interested to see how they make sense of Aberystwyth, the schedule looks fascinating.


The next ten days…

Back to Bermo at last

I am finally on my way back to Bermo to begin the residency in full. Stopped over at the Hay festival on the way for an event on behalf of NTW where The Guardian critic Michael Billington interviewed Lucy Davies, Mike Pearson and me. What a charming man, and, as we discovered over dinner a fervent disciple of Ken Dodd !

He even donated us his case of cava ( the Hay gift to participating artists), much to the delight of Catrin (NTW’s wonderful press officer) who is also ‘caring’ for mine as… Continue
