review: the year since graduation
review: the year since graduation
This blog post has ended up way too bloody long. I sat down to write it on trains whilst I should have been working on an Arts Council England application.
It feels really good to look at a whole year and take stock. It’s cathartic. It feels good to be more personal than I usually am online.
 Graduation
A year ago I had my graduation ceremony. I have so many photos of that day- every single…

Mirabel: A Correspondence
preamble: i really, really, really hated the end of Chris Goode’s Mirabel which recently ran at the Ovalhouse theatre. i messaged ava about it ( @avawongdavies ) and she suggested we write a response together.Â
the emails contain a lot of reference to ben (kulvichit), one of my closest friends and coworkers, with whom I spent two years of university going through the wringer to stage a Chris…

Candid
when i move to london i hope an earnest photographer with a film camera or a tipsy friend with a disposable takes a picture of me on the underground maybe on the jubilee or the bakerloo line so it could look like 2018 or 1979
maybe i’m wearing a tan coat or a green wool scarf in brogues or moon boots with long knitted socks
as if i put myself together in a flat next to the station with leftover…

On [insert slogan here], 5 Encounters and idk the Magic of Theatre??
After I saw [insert slogan here] by YESYESNONO I told my friends ‘I honestly feel like they’re making theatre just for me.’ I loved [insert slogan] and I loved 5 Encounters. I want to watch them all again and again and again.
I saw 5 Encounters three times over the two weeks I was at the fringe last year, with a different group of friends each time. Sam was in the same venue as the show I was…

Emily and Betsy wear yellow tops, pigtails and ponytails, clutching clipboards, greeting us at the door.
They almost scream at us, an incessant ARE YOU HAVING A GOOD TIME?! YOU ARE HAVING A GOOD TIME! It’s funny, hilarious to most of the audience but almost sinister.
As they introduce the camp, the invisible campers, the schedule which consists mainly of… performance? I find myself slipping into…

A&E @ theSpace @ Venue 45
How do you survive in a hospital if you’re not the patient?
Welcome to A&E. The sketch show produced by Queen Mary Theatre Company, featuring an ensemble group of Zak Chan, Daniella Harrison, Rosie Hodgson, Huw Landauer, Clarice Montero, Shavariya Padayachee and Emily Redpath. They are such a GANG. Like S Club 7 in scrubs, uniform in red socks and white trainers, they bounce around the stage and…

Heaven Burns
I am a person who enjoys things. I really enjoy theatre. I even enjoy theatre which is undeniably bad. I can always find something positive about it, or if that fails, I can pretend I’m watching obscure performance art and find the whole thing hilarious.
Thus it beggars belief that Heaven Burns is quite so bad, yet quite so unenjoyable.
The play is based on the true storyof Christian Caddell, a…

Half Moon Shania @ ZOO Southside
Half Moon Shania @ ZOOÂ Southside
 I often don’t get along with gig theatre. It feels like an ill-defined genre, often with songs coming out wishy-washy or blending into each other in their attempt to Not Be A Musical.
Maybe Half Moon Shania works because it’s actually set at a gig? I don’t know, but it works.
These girls are talented at singing, acting writing and playing. They open the show with bondage-tight a capella harmony…

Every time we meet to rehearse something the world feels like it has completely changed!
But we are going to dance for you!
I think everything might be ok!

Nine Foot Nine @ Assembly Rooms
Nine Foot Nine @ Assembly Rooms
I book to see Nine Foot Nine because it has the greatest premise of any show I’m seeing at the fringe.
What would happen if every single self-identifying woman across the world grew to be nine foot tall?
Relevant. To. All. Of. My. Interests.
As the show opens, we are introduced to Cara- played by Alexandra James, who delivers most of her lines in BSL- and Nate (Paul O’Dea) who are planning for a…

Love Songs @ Underbelly Cowgate
 Alissa Anne Jeun Yi has excellent taste in music. I’m grinning at the Janelle Monae and Beyonce pre-set, and Alissa makes me smile as she’s bobbing around the stage.
She’s bright and funny, certain one liners make me laugh out loud because of how blunt and silly they are.
‘Just go hang out in Greggs… or the skate park… IN A GRAVEYARD’.
I think I want to go on a night out with her.
She tells us…

 I recently stage managed a show through the devised theatre society at Warwick, and it will be the last project I’ve worked on at university. It was a movement-based piece exploring dementia, with a gorgeous lighting design, soundtrack and some beautiful choreography. I’ve pieced together fragments of writing I made during the rehearsal process to say something about dementia, and some sort of…

Beginners @ Unicorn Theatre, 7th April 2018
 I have recently been watching many compilation videos of Jimmy Kimmel I Told My Kids I Ate All Their Halloween Candy. Here here and here if you want to have the most evil laugh of your life.
I love these because little kids are so Theatrical without realising it. Once the parents show them the empty pumpkin-bucket, they either throw themselves to the…

Tip Top 2017
I really don’t like going to the theatre alone. When I think about the theatre I see, who I was with matters as much as the show itself. The conversations I have with my friends, have overall been more valuable than any academic module I study, and going to see a show is as much about getting food, hugging each other and chatting quasi-academic shit in the bar as it is a period of sitting in an…

Thoughts on Rita, Sue and Bob Too.
‘Fuck this. Now I need to be up until 1am writing an angry response.’
OK. This is a very specific theatre-royal court theatre- debate blog post thing. I’m writing this at 11pm. I just saw The Last Jedi and I was feeling really great.
And now I’m angry. I’m genuinely upset that a truly bold and courageous decision has been reversed due to public pressure.
Pressure from what I can see, has come…

101 Dalmatians at Birmingham Rep: Review
On the 11th of September 2017, I sent my friend Ben this message:
And on the 3rd of November, Ben got the ticket confirmation.
Which meant on the 5th of December, I got to watch 101 Dalmatians at the Birmingham Rep
Please do not underestimate how excited I was.
Context: I absolutely LOVE 101 Dalmatians. My parents left me with my Granny watching the first animated film when my brother was born,…

Five Encounters on a Site Called Craigslist
(Alternatively titled ‘One Review on a Site Called WordPress’)
Holy crap I liked this show. It was like Jamie Wood and Tim Crouch had a sexy lovechild. This is not going to be an intelligent analysis. It’s going to be me goonishly squealing about how much I loved it.
As soon as I walked into the space I got the Good Vibes. Sam is welcoming all of us. He thanks us all for coming and I genuinely…
