Future

Having successfully completed the direction of "On the Brink" with Johnny B, I am currently working with the Turner Prize winner Jeremy Deller on the development of his public art event for the Folkestone Triennial , "Tales of Time". Inspired by Jacques Tati and silent movie films, this will culminate in live performances and interventions in Folkestone over the summer.

Other current and future projects include clown routines for Drama College productions of Kurt Weil's "Happy End" and the musical "The Big Top." Richard Hougham has invited me to contribute to his forthcoming Dionysus Body Enactment performance. I shall direct the Circus Space Degree Ensemble show at the Riverside Studios, London from July 16th -19th.

From 26th July to 2nd August I shall be running a course at the Gormonston Summer School," Stage works", in Ireland. My course is called "New Wine into Old Skins,"" and will explore a methodology that synthesises Le Coq, Laban and Stanislavsky approaches in examining Irish and Anglo-Irish playwrights, such as Behan, Synge and Mcdonagh. I shall teach on the Laban International Course in Eastbourne, England August 2nd - 9th.

  • 'Red Noses' by Peter Barnes
  • 'Mother' by Bertolt Brecht
  • 'The Threepenny Opera' by Bertolt Brecht
  • 'Man Equals Man' by Bertolt Brecht
