About Me And My Work
Striving to be an Entreprenur Artist. An Ambitious Innovator. Training and Playing hard and with Humility. Believe that unveiling has value.

My new theatre companies Mission Statement;

Fickle Mob creates vital, virtuosic and insurgent theatrical happenings that incorporate loud music, chaos, poop-jokes, silence, pretentious old school text and totally hip new school pop culture references. We steal, update and deconstruct long forgotten and neglected theatrical forms that mostly reside in museums, books and proscenium stages of the past. We flounder in the multimedia technological overwhelming of the present and sometimes think about the future too. Precise, ferocious, incendiary, rabble-rousing and hopefully provocative.

Hi Ross
This comes i little late. I just got to India and now I am hanging out at the Hindustan Kalari Sangam in Calicut, Kerala supervising two girls rom a Finish state school of physical theatre. We are doing a show based on a book about women and war. Even if we don't aim for Bouffon on in style we might end up in the brother or sisterhood, with al their different marsal arts, dance and thretre technics.
I will go up to Mumbai next week to work with Deepal to direct his one-man-commedia dell'Arte-show. It will open before x-mas,
