From March-June 2019, I co-produced Part of the Night’s launch event, Theatre On Tap, at the Old Red Lion Pub.
The event was a 24 hour play challenge, in which two female playwrights and a musical writing duo were given 12 hours to write a new piece specifically designed for the Old Red Lion Pub in Islington, London.
Female, trans, and nonbinary identifying actors and directors then had another 12 hours to stage and perform the piece for two live audiences.
Audiences were welcome to enjoy drinks and pies and to move around the pub as the actors performed.
