Unease is not an emotion I get often in the theatre, and I like it.

'The Author' is subtly unflinching in its satirical attack on certain practices in the creation of art and the mediation of violence.

'The Author' is a play about responsibility, how active we are as spectators and how responsible we are for what we choose to look at.

I don't profess to have music as my big wheel and there are a number of other things as important to me apart from music. Theatre and mime, for instance.

We do not need to proselytise either by our speech or by our writing. We can only do so really with our lives. Let our lives be open books for all to study.

When patronised, I'm unfortunately more flight than fight. Perhaps it's because I actually feel quite wounded.
