I AM KEVIN

Summer 2022

It was my great pleasure to return to the fold and to have been cast as part of the I AM KEVIN performance team as an actor, singer and puppeteer.

 As always working with Wild Works is a fully immersive experience, unique and extraordinary.

This incredible show was the companies first large-scale, site-specific show since Covid, based in Carlyon Bay, St Austell. Headed by the company’s Artistic Director Mydd Pharo. What a fabulous and extraordinary experience. Personally it was a great pleasure to work once again with this ground breaking company. It felt so brilliantly familiar and new at the same time.

I AM KEVIN

“ ‘ I AM KEVIN’ is a provocation to discover the power and possibility that lies beneath the surface of us all.

“ Dark , humerous, fiery and honest”

Tempest

Come hither spirits, will you brave the elements?

A bold, contemporary retelling of Shakespeare’s The Tempest, performed across Trebah’s sub-tropical garden. Incensed skies cause a catastrophic disaster on the beach of a magical island.

Shoulder-padded passengers scatter as your new leader stands tall atop a cliff.

“Dost thou attend me?”

Venture through an island full of noises in this radical adaptation of a 400-year-old story and decide for yourself, who really holds the power?

About this project

This project has been developed by the creative team at Trebah Garden with financial support from the Real Ideas Organisation. Trebah is committed to working with a consciously diverse team of artists. Tempest will reflect this intention.

The Old Man With Enormous Wings

Three Island project (The birth of the company)

Based on the short story by Gabrielle Garcia Marquez that deals with issues of a small community affected by change.
The project took place in three locations. Malta , Cyprus and Hayle in Cornwall. The show was adapted to each location. Working with Artists , Actors, Musicians and Singers from all three countries. It was a truly international project.

Each place that we worked had it’s own challenges. In 2004 the project went to Cyprus and the company were given permission to work in a derelict taverna on the Green line, a buffer between the Turkish and Greek Cypriot communities. Amazingly the company were able to bring Artists from both sides of the boarder to this neutral zone. Creatives that had not been allowed to meet before. It was an emotional and powerful experience of human connection.

We used a newly invented language, music from all three countries and combined traditional dances of the sea bringing and taking away. Communities across the world are unique but often share variations of the same story. This is how we approached the project, exploring a ready-made world its own story, geography, trades, political issues and people but we realised they were not so very different. Most poignantly we found this in Cyprus (2004) when we brought Turkish and Greek Cypriots together to collaborate as audience, participant and performer.
