The roof leaks, the pub stinks, the place is overrun by rats - IT'S EXACTLY WHAT THEATRE SHOULD BE ABOUT!!! I'm fifth assistant director on a sparkling new adaptation of UP THERE'S HEAVEN, an extraordinarily moving piece about a mute, deaf and blind amputee meeting a university professor who turns out to be a lesbian refugee from war-torn Kosovo!!! It's directed by Oxbridge graduatee Harriet Marriott, who is incredibly confident and seems to share my love of Nutrageous bars!!! She's only seventeen but what a brain!!! The one big challenge is they've got only one week of rehearsals and it's not yet fully cast, but the P.R. is fantastic (a completely blue poster with no information - very post-modern) and bookings are expected to pick up once the reviews come out!!!
I'll let you know more when I can - my priority right now is to try to source the three hundred and fourteen props the show needs!!! Phew phew!!! But I LOVE it!!!!
