I’ve written and produced three solo shows…
all visual, black comedies, wordlessly performed by
my alter ego Lois of the Lane, to a continuous soundtrack
featuring voice over, music and sound effects.
Fabledย |ย first performed 2012ย |ย Fabled website
๐ WATCH THE FULL SHOW HERE! ๐
Finding herself as part of an unlikely storytelling set-up
with only her wits and a bottomless suitcase to hand,
Miss of the Lane will endeavour to entertain,
against all odds… โจ

Glitch |ย first performed 2006ย |ย more information here
A lone woman traveller finds herself trapped in a holding cell
during a routine security check.
Rather than succumb to the increasingly totalitarian surveillance,
she attempts to outwit the machine and make a bid for freedom –
hopefully in one pieceโฆ โก๏ธ
Performed 20 times at the The British Library in January/February 2009
as part as their Taking Liberties exhibition โ
Prior to all these was the 2003 production Deeper Underground which properly kicked off the whole style for me!
Created with 3 drama school co-horts, you can find more information about it here
Rush hour:
armpit in your face; briefcase in your back; going nowhere fast.Four strangers rammed in a carriage with no way out.
Join them Deeper Underground for their journey through reality
and out the other side…
