It’s a week since our premiere/scratch showing of our new work. We’ve had some phenomenal feedback. There are difficult themes for sure, but we feel the context is important and relevant. This is a piece we want to develop further. Massive thanks for the energy, talent and patience of our Actual Acting group. Dharlings…..you were marvellous. Out……for now WOYZECK 2016. Looking forward to a new season after the summer.
