Coming out of Hibernation

I'm currently sitting at my dining room table surrounded by empty coffee cups, a tea pot, a half-finished slice of a delicious dairy-free chocolate cake and what seems like several thousand post-it notes. Oh yes, it's that time of year again - APPLICATIONS. Low and I have just trundled through the first batch of Fringe and funding applications for the year, accompanied by the relaxing sound of BBC Radio 4. Whilst we are nowhere near finished, thanks to the mammoth size of most funding application forms, we've definitely made a decent headway - decent enough that I will probably allow myself to finish off that half eaten slice of dairy-free cake that Low clearly didn't want or she would have taken it with her... It's a bit strange to already be thinking about Edinburgh Fringe when outside it is very clearly still the bleak midwinter, but terrifyingly most Fringe programmes will be confirmed within the next three months. Eek.




2016 was a great year for TwentySomething with Hell Has No Fury and For Our Tomorrow and we're hoping to build on their success in 2017. This year should see the emergence of some new work, although that is dependent on my ability to actually write anything new - so fingers crossed! We're also hoping to revive Hell Has No Fury and bring it to some new audiences.

Watch this space!
