Decibel Festival 2009

 

We have just returned from doing the Decibel festival up in Manchester. We performed 30 minutes of the new show at the Library Theatre on Thurs 17th Sept at 11.45am. This was our first time working with the actor Nick Khan and using the new graphics package for our captions. Both seemed to go down well!

We had over 200 people see the extract and if you were one of them and would like to get in touch with us about the show please email tinbaththeatre@gmail.com

We received a lovely review from Disability Arts Online. For the full review please go to: http://www.disabilityartsonline.org/?location_id=1061

Here are a few quotes from the review:

"I've seen a few of Sophie's shows before and her ability for creating and performing such deeply flawed yet intensely believable characters always astounds me. She is well matched in this piece by Nick Khan, whose kebab-shop worker Jenghiz really moved me with his shy and quiet demeanor, until he got hold of the gun, that is.

You can't even try to describe the plot of any of Sophie's work in around 300 words (think Albert Square on acid), the twists and turns are enough to make your head ache. The stories may be extreme but the emotions are raw and real, and instantly recognizable.

So we didn't see the whole show due to the time available within the Decibel schedule, but I saw enough to make me want to get online now and book a ticket for when its anywhere within 150 miles of me. I need to know how the fire at the kebab shop started, if Tabitha ever got a shag and if that bloody baby ever stopped crying!" Jo Verrent
