Comments

  1. Dark play, riveting and painful. It finished and left us hanging over a precipice. Excellent.

    Thank you

  2. Looking forward to seeing the show tonight guys!!! The fact you are writing and directing is inspiring enough....see you later no doubt!! Biberty and Em xx

  3. Great show, hats off in all directions....very powerful and thought provoking without preaching messages to the audience.

    It opens up all sorts of avenues for discussion and contemplation and the balance between the scenes themselves and also the characters complemented each other well.

    Wonderful moments of agony laced with hilarity and the journey Willow goes on with her trusty buddy Leah through the torment of unravelling the truth was brilliantly written and played....oh AND directed!!;-)

    Its rare to see such affective and permeating theatre and wish you every future success with this production in the multitudinous shapes it will likely take.

    Congrats and CHEERS!!

  13. Matt, your dear old Dad has been my agent for years. I don't want to boast, but yes, I was the principal spoonist at The White Lion folk club 1970 -73. Your Dad is trying to revive my career, I have my Grade8 in soupspooning and have just composed a symphony in B maybe for the stainless steel serving spoons.

  14. Hello Matt and Suzy, look forward to coming to the play. Eileen K is too modest,not only can she sing and act, she's a mighty fine player of the spoons as well. Something to think about in your next venture?

    Keep going

    Bob and Alicia

  15. Hello Matt. The website looks great - many congratulations and best wishes for your new venture.

    If you ever write a play for a middle/old /aged fat woman - let me know. This could be our Oscar winning opportunity! (I can sing as well- ask your Dad!)

    Love,



    Eileen x

I've taken care of the security cameras but couldn't get hold of the balaclavas you wanted.
