Titus rocks!

Wahoo!

Titus had a brilliant Edinburgh fringe festival as part of the Made in Scotland and British Council showcase 2013. The splendid Macrobert were are producers and the lovely Summerhall was our venue.

Thank you to everyone who came along to see us.

And for those who missed it, you're silly.

But I although Titus doesn't like to make promises he can't keep, it looks like he will be back soon.

Until then here are a few of our splendid reviews.

★★★★ The Times, The List, Broadway Baby, Fest, Across the Arts.


★★★★★ Edinburghguidedotcom, Three Weeks.

And a couple of interviews with yours truly. Here and here.

We were also the lucky runners-up at the Scottish Arts Club Award for Scottish Theatre. Please note the amazing spelling of my name. Oh yes indeed...

Dragon rehearsals begin

It's taken three years but now the day has finally arrived and we have started rehearsals for Dragon. Here are Jamie and Candice of Vox Motus putting the actors into wonderful shapes.

We are very lucky that the play is a co-production with the National Theatre of Scotland AND the Tianjin People's Arts Theatre in Beijing. This means we have two brilliant actors from China working with us. Our Mandarin is a bit rusty but we are learning new things every day and in the words of Jamie - 'semi-fluent' by the end of rehearsals. I'll let you know how that goes!

Dragon opens at the Citizen's Theatre in October.

SOLD OUT - Playwright (etc)

The workshop I will be leading as part of the Playwright Studio Scotland's TalkFest 2013 on Saturday 17th August is now sold out. I believe PSS have started a waiting list so do put your name down if you would like to come. And for those of you lucky folk who already have a ticket, I look forward to seeing you there.

Titus is 'must-see'

Titus has been chosen as one of the Scotsman's 50 must-see events of the Edinburgh Fringe 2013. That means you must see it. Yes.

Dragon opens at the Citizens Theatre

Have you seen this? Isn't it cool? Yes after three years of hard work Vox Motus/National Theatre of Scotland/Tianjin Children's Art Theatre will be producing my new play for everyone called 'Dragon' in October. I will post more info as and when...

Playwright (etc.) - a workshop

As part of the Playwright Studio Scotland's Made in Scotland TalkFest, I will be doing a workshop entitled 'Playwright (etc.)'. It's on Saturday 17th August 1400-1600 at Fringe Central.

I'll be looking at ideas and where they come from, as well as what it means to be a playwright in the real world. A mixture of practical things and wild fantasy. Bring a pen and an imagination.

Oh and it's free. Bonus.

Titus is Made In Scotland

Titus is back and this time he's here to stay. Well for the month of August at least. I'm very happy to say that with the support of those excellent folk at the Macrobert, our production of Titus is part of the Made In Scotland showcase.

Check here for the details.

We're at the brilliant and exciting Summerhall from 2nd August all the way through until the 25th at 12.10. The show lasts 40minutes.

If you haven't seen it (or even if you have) come along. I'm dead proud of this one.
