Speak Up 2

Well I went up to Speak Up again for another open mic slot and have to say it went really well got to see some amazing performers such as Matt Windle, Vanessa Kisuule and Adam Kammerling.

I’ve put up some videos of me performing on YouTube but also I have been given an actual slot for the next one on May 9th which is crazy and makes me believe I might actually be ok at this spoken word thing.

Swimming in Iran

I'm creating a play (with Farnham Maltings) that is set in Iran. It takes place round a table where the actors and the audience - in role as the friends of the family who are throwing this impromptu party - all eat Iranian food. They will all prepare the food together too. I'm in Rhuthun, North Wales, keen to meet with Iranian people who live up here. Can you help me connect to them? Diolch yn fawr. Kevin.

1) Developing an interactive experience where the audience members step into a world that they can touch, talk to, add to and change.

The past few weeks

have been incredibly crazy! I've been so wrapped up with Waking Exploits I have no idea what I'm going to do with my time when it's all over.

 

They've been adapting 'Pornography' by Simon Stephens, with their director Mathilde Lopez who is a bit like a walking genius.  Its been a thoroughly enjoyable experience shadowing the designer, Alyson Cummins and I will be gutted when it's all over!

 

Opening night is tonight, cannot wait to find out how well it's gone.

'Little Dogs' Frantic Assembly and National Theatre Wales return to Swansea.

Hi.

So I finally have 5 mins to sit down and get a blog going.

It was once said that Swansea is the graveyard of ambition but after a sneaky peak around 'Little Dogs' rehearsals it becomes very clear that just isn't true. 'Little Dogs' brings Frantic back to the city where it all began in a rehearsal room approx 45 seconds walk away from where they put on their first show. I popped in to have a nose…
