As part of the show I have to wear the costumes that the other guys wore in Smudged.
The one in Laura's leotard is probably the most ridiculous thing I've ever seen... Jim Carryesque is probably being kind to me I think. And also trying to fit into Julia's costume is going to be an adventure in itself.
So I decided to make a show about that show falling over.
I don't know what I'm doing.
I don't know if people are going to like it.
But it's going to happen on Feb 9th-13th.
NO-SHOW is a play about failure.
Smudged was a play which previewed to full houses at La Mama in August 2010 and continued to the Brisbane Festival in September. Four actors, a director, and two designers worked at bringing this play to life - developing the script independantly and without outside funding, for performance at the Brisbane Festival, September 2010.
Smudged was a journey into the horrors of social networking, a world in which we all become clowns. This blog is part of our process to exploit myself for the viewing public.
NO-SHOW sees this journey come to its futile and hopeless end.
Any and all contributions to the conversation are welcomed.
