@parabolictheatre celebrated its 10th birthday yesterday. I was privileged to meet @owen___kingston and the team 7 years and 9 months ago and what a whirlwind it has been. From the 1940s alternate Britain to 2180s space to my immersive directing debut in our own venue, every show is an adventure. And every co-conspirator (aka actor) a joy to work with. Happy Birthday Parabolic - here’s to 10 years more!
Hugely excited to announce that I’m doing a new show in just over a month!!! I’m returning to @_voidspace_zine Live on Saturday 6th June with a 1950s murder mystery with a twist. It’s going to be a challenge but super excited for this.
Enjoyed a day off after a full on week playing Freddie Moore at @bridge_command - she’s not perfect but she tries to do her best. Her strong moral compass and tendency to accidentally cause a bit of chaos will continue to haunt me as I keep up with it…This was taken at the start of the week!
Three years ago today, I did my first emergency cover, joining @moonstonemurders on their residency to play Daisy Corden. Two and a half days to learn an intricate show, not an experience (or accent) I shall forget in a hurry!
Our audiences at @bridge_command are incredible - I was given this earlier this week and it’s been so beautifully designed! I’ve already read the contents and am continually in awe of our amazing fans and how much they buy into the world. #immersivetheatre
Thursday shout out to the powerhouses that are @natibogd and @emilycarding - to create the chaos that we do aboard our fictional ship is a joy every day and I wouldn’t want it any other way. Especially when it means constant despair over each other and the occasional disagreement. All in character of course!
World Theatre Day also coincides with the two year anniversary of @bridge_command opening. What a joy and privilege to have spent it in space, surrounded by incredible audiences. May there be many more anniversaries, more celebrations and excuses to dress up! (Thanks @arathisuresh12 for the third photo!)
Although I am not on this poster, my heart jumps every time I see an advertisement for @bridge_command on the tube. It is something extraordinary and I am so proud to be a part of it. Plus look at all my beautiful friends whose faces are on there!!
A sneak peek of some cipher work I’ve been creating over the last few days for fun character things at @bridge_command - I forgot to take a picture of the physical document created but it’s been a while since I got to flex these muscles! #immersivetheatre
Career achievement unlocked - having a character you created and play be a character in a piece of fan fiction! A cameo in one story and a whole chapter appearance in another, it is a privilege to have created a character that people love so much that they want to write about and give a prose voice to her ❤️ #immersivetheatre #fanfictionstories
Happy International Women’s Day from space!! I have the privilege to be surrounded by so many incredible women at @bridge_command - I just forgot to take any pictures with them today! But here’s a snapshot of the three very different but fierce women I got to play today along with my favourite Comms officer. #immersivetheatre
New @bridge_command character unlocked! Always a fun evening when you get to flex your acting muscles. The audience are not prepared for how irritating Tali Rossetti is going to be this evening 👀
