Zoe Spurr Quote

‘The transitions between scenes are as much a part of the play as the text, we can tell a story through light, sound, and movement, and when all of these work together it can either hold the story in anticipation of what’s to come, or impart crucial information to the audience in a vision without words’

Stanislavski Quote

‘In every physical action, unless it is purely mechanical, there is concealed some inner action, some feelings. This is how the two levels of life in a part are created, the inner and the outer.’

Pete Malkin Quote

‘Our playlist started with Anna Jordan, who added some tracks as she wrote the piece, which allowed us into her world and how she was feeling about the play.’
