“This is how hunger begins:
The morning you wake, feeling lively,
Then begins the weakness,
Then begins the boredom;
Then comes the loss
Of the power of quick reason,
Then comes the calmness
And then begins the horror.”
“This delightful and absurd project was labor of love. Working with two incredible professionals, Willem and Misha, ensured each rehearsal was better than the next. While the production process was involved and complicated, it had an air of instant cooking - just add water - and with such a cast and team, the project came together exceptionally well.
I am very proud of the design for this show. Apart from the cyclorama, I employed a relatively small amount of equipment, compared to shows of this measure. Effects and focusing were created with the utmost precision; the show was almost perfectly ‘in tune’.”
