With Tempting Failure fast approaching I’ve been making a start on the bits and pieces we need for the performance.
Performing as ‘SSoCial’, Sally Lemsford and I first met last year at Twycross Zoo and finding many startling similarities in themes of our work have been developing ‘Cicatrix Macula’ off and on over the past year. In the course of development the twists and turns of what and how have encompassed so many things it is hard to know where we started and where we end. I think at the moment we are still somewhere in the middle as in our heads this is the first of a series of works which will be developing as they go.
That we are to finally perform it is both thrilling and terrifying. I think I need an extra big bag to wear on my head for this one.
The trouble with plans formulated in the mind is that the logistics are never as easy as first imagined. Practicalities such as gravity and transport have a tricky way of scuppering the most ingenious of ideas. However do not worry, it will be a wild party. Please come along – there will be jelly – though at the moment, no promise of cake.
