Punctum on Resonance FM
I adapted my theatre piece, Punctum, for the radio. It’s on tomorrow (16th October) at 8pm (repeated on Thursday at 9am) on Resonance 104.4 FM in London or online at resonancefm.com.
The show is about family, heredity, sandwiches and photography – with reflections on Roland Barthes’ Camera Lucida, genetics, and the Chauvet Cave Paintings.

The History of Water (Video)
Video and photos from The History of Water. I wasn’t able to film the whole thing due to time constraints, and because the real point of the performance was to be in the water.

The History of Water
The Arts Council and Hull City Council have kindly funded my upcoming project: The History of Water.
It’s an immersive theatre performance inviting audiences for a swim in two of Hull’s historic pools. Beverley Road Baths and East Hull Pools will be transformed through light, sound, music and stories as participants merrily float and splash their way through the show.
I will be performing with Joseph Kloska. Live music and sound design will be provided by Nadia Morgan. Lighting design is by Tim Skelly. The show is about how precious swimming pools are as public spaces. It is a celebration of pools as spaces for reflection, exercise, socialising and fun, but also a reminder of the importance of our public buildings.
Tickets are £10. Come have a swim!
5-6 October, Beverley Road Baths
12-13 October, East Hull Pools

The second series of Performance Pods comes to an end with Professor Jen Harvie’s discussion of Immersive Theatre. It’s a subject that’s close to my heart, so I think this is a good one. Enjoy.
