I thought you might all be bored of looking at my face so I figured I would type a blog.
Last week I was lucky enough to get a hold of the keys to the NTW Warehouse to start work on a project called Escape Earth. It began after going to a few spoken word nights around Wales and discovering some very interesting very talented people. I thought it would be a good idea to get these people in a room together and talk about working on a project. So after weeks of trying to get…

As swell a party as the MGM version in 1956? The production team seemed aware the packed first night audience would be thinking of Kelly, Crosby & Sinatra. The Millennium Centre's safety curtain was dressed-up as for a film, with an American-accented voiceover. The opening sequence, featuring the whole company, had enough energy and style to convince us they could carry it off.
The choreography and band were worthy of the West End, the cast clearly enjoying…

I'm writing this through a jet lagged fog. So if it's incoherent babble (see food blog) then please excuse me.
It's now 18.30 Wednesday evening Tokyo time so 10.30 in the morning for you lot (Japan really is in the future).
You know that feeling when you're on holiday; that first view of the coastline as the plane gently arcs towards the runway? and how it makes you know your on holiday. I didn't get that. The first I saw of the Tokyo was as the plane wheels hit the tarmac with…

HIGH SOCIETY
Is the chorus right? Has this musical ‘Got that thing’? High Society, which is running all week at the WMC, is a saunter back in history to a pre-war period when the idle rich could squander their time on the vagaries of love and marriage. Such an outdated plot needs something special to lift the interest level and this version of the musical has found ‘that charm’ to do just this. The difficult to please…

When I was a teenager I played in a string quartet. We spent an afternoon once 'busking' in a local park near the tea shop. A few people dropped in some change and the occasional fiver while we were playing but when we'd finished, a lady who'd sat and listened for the full two hours came over and gave us £20. She explained that she'd pay at least that for a concert in a concert hall and that's what she thought her experience was worth.
I've just come across…

Here’s a picture of the theatre space yesterday – as the designers and crew worked to construct our ‘in the round’ set, with 360˚ video projection. It’s the first time the space has been used this way at the New National Theatre in Tokyo, so everyone is very excited to see the set go in. The design team is really top quality, full of great ideas and a strong drive…

Whenever I go away I tend to send my long-suffering lady pictures of what I'm eating. I think she finds it ammusing (or at least humours me) so I thought I'd share my food diary with a wider audience.... Sorry.

Life can be strange.
This time last week I'd nipped home to have lunch with my baby daughter, before heading over to Newport to see Tin Shed's new space in an old MFI. This Monday I'm on a train to London as the first leg of my Journey to Tokyo.
My only previous experience of Tokyo was…

High Society
Musical comedy should have strong melodies sung well and acting with impeccable timing. High Society at The Wales Millenium Centre was a show of two halves. Half the songs are memorable, some are even classics - ‘Who wants to be a millionaire’, ‘Just one of those things’ and ‘Well did you evah’ (yes, the spelling is correct!). The other half are best forgotten. In this production half the cast could both sing…
