WellâŚselling out southbank centre three nights in a row wasnât why myself and
@palomicanicol made Shooting From Below but it doesnât hurt. This show has been a long time coming. This show is for the short-arses. This show is for the crips. This show is for the freaks. The show is for the queers. This show is for all those who arenât one of the above to get a fucking grip.
Very proud. Very tired. Very honoured. Very self-assured. Very that.
I wanna thank all the folks who have helped make this happen on an official and unofficial basis. Itâs amazing to have financial and institutional support however itâs the people who come together and stick around who make it a meaningful success.
Will hopefully put a tour together and take it around so keep eyes and ears and general holes peeled.
This show wouldnât exist without Nicol Parkinson (co-collaborator and more). Theyâre the reason why Midgitte casts such a big shadow.
