'I’ve heard my work described as “very singular”, meaning it’s not like other things. I’m very happy with that description of it.' Did a Q&A with @theatrebubble about making Monster Show & the slippery nature of my work (literally and figuratively). ➡️ bit.ly/3FEFaRc

'Don't miss it' @Tim_Etchells said. So, if you know what's good for you, don't miss it.

Letting you know I have something on you can see, for the people who ask me to let them know when I have something on they can see 👀 And for everyone else too. This is a show for now. See you there.

Spooky season is nearly upon us. Which means it's almost time for @hesterchill to descend on us with MONSTER SHOW. An uncompromising attempt to re-dub all the audio from the iconic 1931 film Frankenstein, using just one voice. Spend Halloween with us? 👻 cptheatre.co.uk/whatson/Mons…
Text reads: "Monster Show, Tue 31 Oct - Fri 3 Nov, Camden People's Theatre". A performer stands on a dark stage wearing a bulky Frankenstein's monster costume and mask.

Fun fact. James Whale's 1931 Frankenstein credits "Mrs. Percy B. Shelley" as the author of the original book. Mary's selfhood was more intact a century earlier.

From one neurodivergent theatre make to another - check out ADHD The Musical by Dora Colquhoun @CamdenPT. A wonderful mix of facts, storytelling and cracking original show tunes. Now playing until 28 Oct: cptheatre.co.uk/whatson/ADHD…

Did someone mention Halloween?! Inside a ridiculous costume @hesterchill attempts the impossible task of delivering the 1931 Frankenstein film soundtrack using just their voice. Dialogue, sound effects, music, everything. Monster Show | 31 Oct - 3 Nov 🎟️ cptheatre.co.uk/whatson/Mons…
