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.
