However, this title is not referring to a physical and theatrical empty space. Rather 'the empty space' refers to a glorious hole in my research that baffles me a little. Granted I haven't pulled out all the stops yet but one wouldn't have expected such information to… Continue

First days are by their very nature difficult. The beginning has always fascinated me both in theatre and indeed life and I have often wondered why, in many ways my fascination with beginnings is to do with the fact that beginnings are loaded with hope and also inevitably coupled by a certain degree of nervous… Continue
