October 2010

Bootleg staging 'Snapshots' a compilation of four plays including 'Material Things' commencing in Salisbury on the 5th November. On to Frome and then Portsmouth on the 15th November at the Cellars at Eastney.

'White Meat' rehearsals continued whilst I was away in Portugal in the summer. But for a number of reasons, the director and one the actors pulled out of the production. Spent the last six weeks looking for a new Director and a replacement actor, finally found, and back on track.

Decided in the past week to stage my play 'It Started With A Touch' at the Barons Court Theatre next September for a two, possibly three-week run.

July 2010

'Blackberry Stains' screened at the Cannes Short Corner. And got an honorary mention at the LA Film Festival.

Wrote a feature length screenplay entitled 'Copious Notes'.

In May I modified a short screenplay entitled 'Material Things' and cut it for the stage. Bootleg Theatre plan to include it in a compilation of four plays to be produced in Salisbury in September, and a possible run in the south-east in October.

Bench Theatre Group are staging two one-act plays entitled 'United' and 'Paperwork' as part of their Supernova 5 venue in September.

March 2010

'White Meat' performed by some excellent young actors at the New Theatre Royal Portsmouth on the 18th February. The plan is to stage it again sometime in summer.

Completed a full-length play entitled 'It Started with a Touch' in February, telling the story of a Mother who shops her son to the police when he attacks and blinds an innocent man. Issued to a number of London fringe theatres.

'Blackberry Stains' completed in March. One-Eyed-Dog plan to issue it to the Cannes and Brooklyn film festivals.

Just completed a full-length play entitled 'Re-enactment' a kind of farce about two couples who swop partners for a night.
