It is an exciting time when you are putting together a theatre tour of plays which you have both written and directed. A new team, cast, scripts and new venues. Baggage, a two hander about a housewife and a homeless woman is a comic-tragic short play that premiered at the Wirral Festival of Firsts in July. The feedback and reviews were so good it encouraged me to put it with another two-hander SPACE and make a mini tour of the Merseyside area.
Space is about a woman, Crazy who is living in chaos. She needs to declutter her house and also her mind. Sanity, her alter ego arrives to help her find some space but can the two of them work together in harmony.
Both plays have themes of women in middle life, the change, marriage and divorce, children, affairs, ailing parents, dealing with death and break up, getting old and trying to stay fit. Depression and loneliness but... there's also a lot of laughter in between the tears and cries of rage.
It might seem a lot of bags and boxes but four actresses give their all in these heart warming plays that will bring a tear to your eye .
The January tour is to coincide with the tenth anniversary of Hand in Hand Theatre Productions and their new associate Tour co. Bus Stop productions. the tour will be calling at ...
the Blue lounge at the Floral Pavilion New Brighton on Thursday 18th Jan. Then on to the Clwyd room Theatr Clwyd Mold on Fri 19th .
