Now this is long over due.

Just the day after I performed my first full work in progress presentation of The Middle Bit at the Arnolfini i was off to London to put on a 15 minute version at the Tristan Bates Theatre's Midnight Matinees.

As the name suggests this happens from midnight onwards and it comprises work in progress and development performances. That night there was a script reading by, ah right, this is the problem i have forgotten the details and lost the info sheet i had so maybe i will update this once i've tidied my room.

Well I'm performing the Middle bit this Friday at 6:30pm in the Bristol Old Vic and I am terrified, so scared I can barely think straight. Brilliant. Get your tickets now because it will sell out on the night for sure - http://www.bristololdvic.org.u...

I made it back home after tonight's work in progress presentation of The Middle Bit at the Arnolfini, but only just, my legs had pretty much stopped working.

Tonight I learnt an important lesson about pre-performance nutrition having basically run out of energy and gone all jelly legged before the show and thereafter visibly wilting during the post show discussion. Not even managing to get a beer down me before wobbling off.

I am very pleased to announce my West End Debut on the 18th of April 2009 at the Tristan Bates Theatre as part of their Midnight Matinees season of performances. Yes it really does start at Midnight.

I will be showing a shortened version of The Middle Bit, think of it as a trailer for the full version that will no doubt premier in London at a bijou little venue such as the Coliseum Theatre or perhaps the Royal Albert Hall.
