Twelfth Night, Filter Theatre, Brighton Corn Exchange.

This review was originally published on The Public Reviews.

Twelfth Night was originally created by Shakespeare to celebrate the end of the Christmas Festival. With the purpose of celebration in mind, he packed it to the brim with all the popular crowd pleasers; more music, revelry and drunken disorder, a little bit of slapstick and romance.

The Body of an American, Gate Theatre

Photo credited to Simon Dutson.

The Body of an American is a play about a photograph. We get to see the photograph multiple times throughout the opening of the play. We see it in pixels, distorted up and close. We see the version they printed and the version they didn't. We see it from the view of the photographer who took it, from the view of various bystanders and from the family of the body. The only person whose view we don't get is the view from the body itself.

Sensing Space, Royal Academy, London.

Kengo Kuma's installation smelt of Tatami Mats and Hinoki wood.

Last week I visited the 'Sensing Spaces' exhibition at the Royal Academy of Arts. I admit that I have no knowledge of architecture, other than as a frequent user, so I am reflecting upon the experience as a theatre maker instead.
