It’s the first day of work on Momo at South Street Arts Centre. Here’s a slightly fuzzy picture of the cast note-bashing. We’re lucky to have David Cumming, Danny Kennedy, Charlie Folorunsho, Stuart King, Jane Nash, Rebecca Thorn and Luisa Guerreiro working with us this week. Don’t forget you are welcome to come to South Street...

Osnat found this image whilst gathering research for her composition for the music of the hour lilies, which I think will be one of the most beautiful sections of MOMO. We’re meeting next thursday when Emma (designer), Annie (dramaturg) and I will hear the first stages of the next compositions. Meanwhile, there’s a great new initiative which...

After the opening of Goldilocks at the Little Angel Theatre last week (for which Osnat has been writing the music) we had the chance to catch up and continue planning for our next R&D period on Momo. It’s going to be a big show for us, our biggest yet and we are grappling with quite what...

Had a lovely first day of R&D on MOMO at Jacksons Lane. Here is Lola, she’s a show girl or at least a doll which we brought to life. We’ll have to see if she will make an appearance again.
