About The Productions


Have you ever wondered how our imaginations fit inside our heads?   Sometimes, mine feels like it is spilling out of my ears. 

Perhaps that's why I love making music and telling stories. All of the shows are gig theatre performances of original stories with original music.  

Within the stories and the lyrics you'll find rhyming; wordplay; philosophical meanderings; absurd lectures; magical realism; odd characters masks; props and so on.    

In performance, the stories unfold using song, sung and spoken narrative; a midi keyboard (or a Rhodes, or a Wurlitzer electric piano);  

a laptop; an array of pedals; props and costumes; a mix of live music and prerecorded tracks throughout. Musical influences include jazz, blues, rock, singer-songwriter, improvisational/ experimental and avant-garde.   .


Who are shows for?

Misfits, oddballs, eccentrics, artists and creatives;  also, fans of stories, fantasy, science fantasy, magical realism and steampunk;   people who love a show that is both theatre and music;   fans of gig theatre and also fans of funkiness.   


Concerning Art

Sometimes, I ask myself ‘what is the use of my tiny effort?’ and ‘what is the use of art’. Extraordinarily, when I perform, I remember this: it matters deeply.

Concerning Collaboration

I LOVE collaborating and experimenting! You'll find a few videos and photos showing a few things I've done with others so far. Please contact me with ideas, proposals and so on.
