Fallen Behind Again

The water it is like a machine. sharp searing sound breaking siren feathers

I am doing the first showing of my new performance piece Scream Away on Saturday as part of the Poolside Emergency festival at The Bluecoat. The middle section of the performance is a slide show and above is one of the images that I will be using. Creating the right images for the piece has been a difficult task. I started by re-creating a Cindy Sherman style image that captured 101 questions and emotions, but I was mortified at the result. After speaking with Gavin who I am collaborating with on this project I refined and filtered the ideas

Last week I was in a very successful run of Broken Biscuits by Tam Hinton at Studio Salford. It is very satisfying to go from one performance to the next. However I am not enjoying all the lines that I have to learn!

What with going to New York and everything I have yet again fallen behind in my blogging!

Naughty.

Very naughty especially since I have hit on a diamond of a starting point for a new performance piece. The idea came out of the darkness and hit my across the face. I was making a collage and saw a comment in an old magazine that said ….

The director told Margaret to scream as much as she wanted!

My new focus is about screaming and what we say using non – verbal langauge. I have done loads of writing and I will post more details after I have finsihed my application for poolside emergency.

Ta-ra for now Xx

This was the collage that helped me. You never know where an idea will come from!
